Just got mine in the mail... Man that is a sweet looking sight! Can't wait to get it mounted!!! Anyone else tried one out?
I honestly don't remember how much I paid.... I pre-ordered it a while back and bought several other things at the same time.... Looks like you can buy them over in the shopping area on this site for $154.99....
I've had mine on for about a month now. I love it! It was a great upgrade from the TruGlo sight I had.
Its great. You have a screw that you loosen up that allows you to turn a second screw which actually does the moving. Once you've got the pins where you want them you tighten down the original screw. You can also adjust the pins individually or gang adjustments. The TruGlo I have does not have the micro-adjustments so that was one of the reasons I switched. I was not disappointed.
nice... i really like the micro adjust on the G5 i've got but i really like the look of this nxs sight... might have to pass of my G5 to the son during the off-season next year...
I've been really happy with it so far. I've only used it on 3D courses and practicing in the yard but I don't see why I wouldn't like it in hunting situations too.
cool, keep us up to date on your progress with it... the NXS is high on my list for next season along with the Amortech and the spott hogg hunter... the nxs ha sprice goin for it though
Two things I wasn't a fan of on the NXS that made me go with the Armortech instead. 1. The magnetic light holder. Very cool concept, but I can pretty much guarantee I would knock it off and lose it at some point before the season is over. 2. Exposed fibers on the back of the pins. I've broke pins on 3 different sights over the past 3 seasons. I'm done with any exposed fibers at all, no matter how tough or how small. All in all a great sight, but I think those two improvements would really make it a lot better. Congrats on the purchase, keep us informed how it works out for you!
Justin I agree with you on those 2 points. I have actually already knocked off the magnetic hood during a 3D shoot. And had it fall off while attempting a shot with it on. I decided that it needed to be carried into the woods in the pack and not on the bow. I'm hoping that this canvas pin sight cover I have will protect the exposed fibers. Like I said we'll have to see how it does while hunting. :D
I'll have to check out the Armortech.... Broken fibers are always a concern - I've broken my share off too.... Where I hunt, lights on bowsights are illegal so I didn't even really pay attention much to that piece... Will be interested to hear how you like your Armortech this season!
great looking sight, but I think ill stick to one pin, I dont care much for multi pin setups, things just get to jumbled. and I think with todays highspeed bows, theres really not much need to multi pin setups. I used to use multi pin and was very persistant and then went to a single pin setup and became even more persistant out to 50 yards. Just my two cents. it is a sweet looking sight though. Let us know how it works out for you.
