Garmin bow sight

[ruger7mag]

I guess it was only a matter of time before a company made one. It is a rangefinding sight that puts the dot where you need to aim. They are pretty pricey though $800-1000.

That's really awesome. I've long had some ideas that incorporated a sight with that kind of functionality.

Couple things to keep in mind; it may not be legal in some states. I'm almost positive it wouldn't be illegal in MT. Also I wonder how heavy that sight is. That being said its a great idea, but as technology progresses in the outdoor industry, I feel like we are becoming lesser woodsmen, and more IT geeks.

That is a great idea. A little pricey for the adverage hunter.

It gives a list of states that allow electronic sights. Also says the weight is comparable to many other bow sights.

I'd keep plenty of batteries handy.

Bout time.

Same here. Some friends and I talked about just this kind of sight the last few bow seasons. It will not do me much good since I keep all shots to 30 yards and under, but definitely slick for those that shoot further.

I think that's pretty cool. I'd rather see it in the 150-250 price range tho lol

iq has a sight with built in range finder for $350. It's also still usable if the electronics mess up

I can only imagine the reaction of the IQ guys, thinking they'd have the most innovative sight at ATA, when they saw the Garmin. :rotf:

Personally I like this one best as you arent dead in the water when looking through the peep at a 150 and the sight doesnt light up!!!!
