Default Bow Sight Question

Is there any bow sights out there that adjust like rifle scopes (1/4 or 1/2 inch adjustments)?

I hate adjusting mine. Move it one way its to much. Back the other way to little.

Some do.

Most target sights have "clicks" that equal 1/4" movement of POI at 20 yards.

HHA uses the same system on some of their hunting sights as well. Only down side is most of them are single pin sights.

Spot Hogg uses a combination of gang adjustments of the head as well as allen keys to micro adjust the pins.

MBG uses a wheel system on their higher end sight for micro adjustment of both the gang and the pins.

There are other system as well amongst other manufacturers, and almost all manufacturers have multiple offerings from entry level to high end models

Generally, the more you pay, the greater the level of micro adjust you receive for both the gang and pins.

Most good micro adjusts will make this process a lot easier. It is a PITA when having to move everything with Allen wrenches.

Man were spoiled now a days, I can remember when the pins had knurled brass nobs you had to spin by hand. When you tried to move them a hair they would slide an inch down the rail lol. But I get it, I really like the Spot hog setup for a hunting bow.

I had the React, and it was decent. I sold it, though, and have an older micro-adjust sight made by Trophy Ridge on my bow now. it works great.

Been checking out Black Gold sights too. They have a solid system. When it's time for me to buy a new sight, I'll either get something like their Widow Maker, or a Spot Hogg Hunter.
