On The Horizon — Rocky Mountain Horizon Series Sights

For 2023, Rocky Mountain brings its A Game to a new series of high-end bow sights. The Horizon Series consists of a 5-pin fixed model, 1- or 3-pin Driver Sight and a 3-pin Dovetail unit (the bottom pin is a floater) complete with a Mathews Bridge-Lock-compatible dovetail mount. All the sights feature machined, aircraft-grade aluminum mounting brackets and sight housings, sight light compatibility, toolless adjustments, laser-etched windage and elevation marks, second- and third-axis adjustments and a bubble level. The ultra slim, .019-inch pins are 50 percent thinner than some other pins and, when coupled with a dual-track retention system, produce a tight pin stack resulting in a large field of view/sight picture. The 5-pin and Driver sights are designed with four sight-mounting positions, left- and right-handed compatibility and a changeable plastic pin-housing ring (orange and green included). Additionally, Driver sights feature gang elevation adjustments, smooth-operating ergonomic yardage adjustment dial and a forward-facing sight tape. Rocky Mountain’s 8.5-ounce Dovetail mount sight (right-handed only) is equipped with an anodized aluminum sight ring (changeable with orange and red options), forward-facing sight tape, 2.125-inch-diameter pin housing and smooth and ergonomic yardage adjustment dial.

Incredible Cuztomization — Dialed Archery ARXOS Sight

The customizable ARXOS hunting sight gives hunters the flexibility to look at the type of hunt they’re going on and adjust to fit that style. The VOID design allows for incredibly accurate movement of the Angled Elevation System (AES) platform, as well as gives users a choice on where they want to mount their yardage tapes, with inside and outside frame-mounting options selected at the time of purchase. The AES also allows the archer to achieve further yardages before running into vane-clearance issues. By angling the elevation rail, the ARXOS is able to shorten the amount of space needed on the sight tape, which means less dial travel when adjusting yardages. The sight features adjustable pin brightness, second- and third-axis adjustment and comes in both dovetail-mount and Picatinny-rail mounting options. Both 1- and 3-pin configurations are available; sights feature a Cerakote finish and can be color-customized. $500 and up | dialedarchery.com
