Black Gold sight

Postby Fridaythe13th » 03 13, 2015 •  [Post 1]

I hope all of the fans out there for black gold sight are right. I just sent my money in for the "Rush" . A custom 5 pin sight with the 1st 3 pins ( 20, 30, 40 yards) at .19 and the last 2 are ( 50, 60 yards) .10 pins.

Friday, I received new MBG Rush in the mail a few weeks ago. Haven't had time to put it on my Alpine yet but hopefully soon. Just did 4 pins on mine though.

I got an ascent with 5 pins. Took 2 of them out. The .010 pin is very bright. Sight works great and I love the brightness of the pins.

I'm excited to see if those .10 pin help at longer yards. I looked at the other MBG sight's but in the heat of the battle the less adjusting I have to do is better.

I guess I am lucky and can see my 010 pins fine, but I have green.

Might try contacting MBG and see if you can swap out that red pin for a green or yellow.

I have my pins green yellow green.

No red. I have a hard time seeing it.

I did. They are pretty cool over there. The guy on the phone laughed and told me could cost me anywhere between $0 and $12. I just can't spare my bow, this time of year.

I think it's the red pin that is the biggest culprit.

I agree, I wished I went with that. I can see the red pins just fine just like the yellow green combo better.

Love MBG. I have a Surge 7 pin and a 3pin Ascent. The slider has .29, .19, and .1 for it's the pins. I went with all green on the three pin and a red one up top on the 7 pin.
Get out earlier, go farther, stay longer..KEEP HAMMERING
