Ok, I'll admit I didn't need a new sight. My Sure-Loc has the bightest pins on the planet and is a great sight. Only thing I didn't like about it was the fibers were exposed to whatever might want to snag them in the woods, and I've had to replace a couple of them. They covered it under warranty every time so it only cost me the time to change them.

But with everything going great and my shotting as good as it's ever been I decided to throw a monkey wrench into the mix with only 3 weeks til the bear opener and replace my sight. I flip flopped around between the Sword and the Spot Hogg. Then I norrowed it down to the Hogg-It and the Hunter. I went with the Hogg-It. I've been shooting with the 6" dove tail mount on my Sure-Loc for three years and I like the fact you can move the sight to align perfectly with your peep. Something a fixed mount can't do. For $15 bucks more it was an easy choice for me.


Here's the deal. I set the sight up yesterday set the 2nd axis with a 4 foot level and took 'er outside to the target. (I still need to check the 3rd axis.) I set the pins up at 20, 30, 40 , 50 and 60 yards. The micro adjust is way more than micro, that thing really moves the pin :thumbup All in all I had the sight on and set up with all the pins out to 60 yards in about an hour. Then I put it away and did some work that I've been neglecting.

Saw the XT just sitting there today looking all cool with it's new sight so I picked her up and headed out the door to take a few shots. I didn't get to play with it nearly as much as I would have liked to yesterday. I've heard all the "hype" about this sight and now I have to say it isn't hype, this sight is rock solid and badd azzz. The pins are very bright with the wrap.

Here's my 60 yard group from a cold start. I was laughing as the arrows were hitting, three of the shafts were touching. I :X my new sight.


I put the bow away after this grouping. Maybe I'll shoot again later this evening. I can't say enough good things about this sight. I didn't put that big goofy knob with the hogg on it either, just tightened down the allen screw that it comes with.

Id say your ready to hit the woods. Ive heard alot of good thing about Spot Hogg too. Looks like a nice one

You should be shooting at a 3-D bear target!

Nice grouping!

I like the target. What are you shooting into? field tips only?

Way to go Steve, you're shooting nicely! How many pins does the sight have?

It's a Pacific Bow Butt, Super Butt, 44 h" X 36 w" x 15"d. I bought the deer target on line from Ames All Wetaher Targets. Shooting field tips. I use Rage broadheads and I don't even use the practice heads anynore because there is no difference at all in arrow flight from field tips to the real things. These targets will take broadheads but they will tear the covering up pretty fast.








6 Pins. Oooops, I mean 5.

Nice sight Steve. I really like the Extreme sights. !

So is that a buck only sight ?

I'm not suprised that you love that sight. Everyone else who I have talked to loves it too. One of my buddies who comes in to shoot a lot has it. He said he'll never change again.

Nope, does and bears are going to be treated equally with the monster bucks



With a lifetime warranty he won't have too

Did you order the target direct from the manufacturer? I would like to get a new target, my old excelsior is junk after 10 years and I like the looks of this one better.

Does it have .019 pins trophy?

Great shooting and great sight, I was between the hogg it and the sword apex 3rd plane. I went with the sword due to cost. Shooting .010 pins and just added a 4x lens for the heck of it and it really elevated my shooting to the next level.
