Gotta ask, what was the first?First season on mine. Helped me shoot my deer at an unknown distance this year. No more guessing or trying to hold low or high.
Definitely the second best investment I made this year.

Great post. I'm in same camp.I’ve got one I’m interested in selling. Shoot me a pm.
I shot 2500+ shots over the course of a year or so with the EZV sight. It took that many shots to rule it out for me for whitetail hunting. Put simply, if I apply math to the situation, and shoot at a deer past 30 yards with a bow, I already have decreased the odds beyond what I’m normally comfortable with. If I add in not knowing the exact distance, the margin for error combined with all the variables is not acceptable to me.
I shot three deer and missed one with it. All were inside of 30 yards. I didn’t attempt a shot further than 30.
At the end of the day, the single pin system for whitetail hunting is the answer for me, and I think for 90% of whitetail hunters. Yes, my sight is adjustable. Yes, I might shoot at a deer at 40/50 yards should the conditions be perfect. But I put the odds at close to zero I take that shot anymore with a bow.
Mostly, I think the lack precision that comes with the ezv overcomes the advantages of it.
- Clear sight window versus multiple pins(I only shoot one)
- Eyes natural tendency to center the V on what you’re aiming at (I’ve probably shot 200k shots plus with a bow and pin sight. To say I’m conditioned to it is an understatement)
Faster target acquisition - this one I did notice as being an advantage standalone.
Those are the only advantages to me.
The ‘not having to range’ I don’t see as an advantage because it wasn’t precise enough in my testing to be considered so. I can see people shooting speeds above 290-300fps it being sufficient for what we’re doing. But then you’re shooting a light arrow.
I think it would be useful inside of 30 yards. But I am consistently more precise inside 30 yards with a single pin, and there is no lingering doubt in my head if I have the deer framed properly.

All of that is great, wonderful, well thought out and makes PERFECT sense......until your eyes turn 54 and you can’t see the damn pin
I love mine because I can see it and I don’t have to wonder where in the ball of blur the actual pin is.
My Juki 8700-h. Made 4 saddles for me this spring and 2 for my son.Gotta ask, what was the first?
I thought I was having the same issue.
I switched to a much smaller pin with a much larger wrap of fiber, and can shoot out to 100 no issue now.
I’ll argue with you on the principle that if your pin is too fuzzy to hunt with, so will the V and the deer anyway. But if it’s working, rock on! I just think the advantage is overblown once you take a more methodical approach to unpacking the whole idea. Especially tossing in bad eyesight.
You've just described me with contacts in that correct for distance vision only. Those things really screw up my close up vision. Framing the deer with the EZV solves most all of my problems . . .ok, sight wise anyway.Well, you don’t really have all the info. My distance vision is still 20/20 or better. My near vision is 20/200 left and 20/400 right. And I’m right handed and right eye dominant. Everything is crystal clear from about 40” out.

Anyone know the circumference of the inserts? Wondering if they would fit in an existing housing.
If he was a savvy businessman he would make it a bastard takeout so folks wouldn’t do this. It was the first thought that crossed my mind when I was looking at the sight too. But ultimately gave the man credit for his hard work and paid full price.
I got 1.985 diameter..... That makes circumference 6.236Anyone know the circumference of the inserts? Wondering if they would fit in an existing housing.
Not only that, but have you ever talked to the guy? Aaron is super nice to deal with and has top notch customer service. Hard to not be in support of guys that run a business like he does!But ultimately gave the man credit for his hard work and paid full price.
