I have shot HHA for years. I love them. Lifetime warranty, durable, accurate. That being said, I am probably switching to a G5 Optix Xr2. Two pins, one fixed, one movable. I like having the ability to dial the pin to the exact yardage, but for hunting I wanted a little more versatility. Ill set the pins at 20 and 30 most likely. Anything past that, I am going to want to put the pin on exact yardage anyway
I liked the idea of that too but once I tried out a multi pin again I just didn't like it. I will be sticking with a single pin for sure. I love my new HHA. I saw yours had made a move as well.
Call me a quack..made in China doesn't bother me. I've been duped so many times on "American made" I just ignore it now. I buy what I like and let others stay concerned with buying american made and finding out later that most of the parts were made in China anyway and the only thing american made about their product is the package or the paint or whatever. To be clear...I'm not saying HHA is not made in the USA, I have no idea...I'm just speaking in general terms of products I've dealt with in the past. HHA makes a good product as far as I know, lots of people using them and love them. Someone correct me if I'm wrong but I believe you'll have to also buy an extra bracket for your quiver for the HHA sights and they end up heavier than the Trophy Ridge and that was the deciding factor I ran into.
I sort of agree with you on the "American made" verse "Made in China" deal. If it looks well engineered and it has good reviews and whatnot, I feel safe buying it. I never used a quiver on my bows using the HHA so I have no help there. On the bright side, they are made a little over an hour away from me, so they are American made, no doubt
You only have to buy a quiver bracket for the tight spot quiver since it's since so close to the bow and would get in the way of the dial or slider without it Sent from my iPhone
Yeah the HHAs come with a quiver bracket that is pretty light weight Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
Look at an Axcel Armortech HD-Pro. Love mine and so glad I chose it over some others I was looking at. Axcel Archery Sights and Scopes - Armortech PRO Hunting Sight
I love my HHA! You are looking for a single pin! And you are kinda leaning into not getting one! Reconsider! Hha is great single sight! But one brand get one new and get a life time warranty!
Well that is good to know, my brother in law wanted an HHA and while discussing sights we came across a video on youtube of sight trials and the guy in the vid pointed out he had to buy an extra bracket for the quiver to work and it was just an ordinary quiver as far as I could tell. Seemed confusing but seemed to be the case after further investigation so I ended up going another route.
Just saw a hha single pin new on sale on eBay for $66 shipped. If that's the way you are heading. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
The optimized lite ultra has the offset bracket and the optimized lite has longer quiver mounting screws and spacers to mount you regular quiver bracket to. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
I have a MBG Ascent in a 3 pin design. Sure it may not have the openness of a single pin, but it works great for me. pins are set at 20, 30 & 40, with my 40 being my floater out to 80 yards. I could go further but I anchor a bit high so it reduces the clearance I have to the bottom of my sight. I'm lofting 530 grain arrows too. Where I hunt it's thick. I can have an animal creep out at 10-50 yards with out much warning. So I opted to have the 3 pin so I was set to 40. If they are further out, I'll most likely have the time to dial in (if I choose to even shoot that far).
Fitz I really like the sound of that configuration and it seems very applicable to the terrain I hunt here in Kansas. Some days I'm on a wide open oak flat, others I'm tucked up inside a thick hedge row. I'm gonna have to do some research on the fixed/floating sights. Thanks for adding another option to an already overwhelming amount of choices haha!
A setup like Fitz has may work best for you if you want to be able to dial out longer distance but still have a fixed yardage for closer shots but, I tried it out and it wasn't for it was just because I can't focus as well with multiple pins in the housing. So it didn't work for me and why I went with the single pin but it may be just what you are looking for if you already like fixed pins. Good luck in picking now.
A hybrid setup is the only way I could go I believe. I don't have problems with pin clutter in the field, but having a movable bottom pin would be fun if only for long range target practice in my yard (I can get 80+ in my yard).
It's not that complicated, get a quality single pin and try it and see how you like it, you can always go back to a multi-pin. Personally I don't think you'll regret it.
