Do you like your's? I just bought the flatliner 3 pin and so far I think I'm gonna like it. I have one pin set at 20yds and another at 35yds. I only use 2 pins. I also have the LED light which really brightens the pins when huntin from my blind or in low light. I've heard some say they were good sights, and some say they were junk. just tryin to figure out what to expect from the sight. those that have one, do you like it, and have you had any problems with the sight or LED light?

I have 2 of them, the flatliner is on my old hoyt and I have a matrix on my ultra tec. I love both but I like the matrix better because of the amber and red pins plus it has steel pins.I have never had a problem with either of mine but don't believe the hype about finger tighten the bolts. Once you get it set take a pair of pliars and give it another half turn. Trophy Ridge has great customer service, never needed it on my sights but I did buy a trophy ridge rest that broke within the first 50 arrows. A call to trophy ridge is all it took, they offerred to replace it but I chose to get a refund, I though it was made a little cheap so I went back to my Nap rest.

well, I spoke to soon gulfcoast. I hunted out of my blind yesterday evenin and this mornin, and as long as it's low light or cloudy I can see my pins fine. but when the sun comes out, I can't see my pins at all, even with the LED light on. there;s too much light shinnin in i guess. anybody know a solution to this, besides buyin a sight with bigger pins and LED?

Never had this problem except when the sun is shining right in my face.

never had any problems with my matrix in the light, like you had. the only thing i didn't like, was facing into the sun, the pins were TOO bright, they glowed so much it looked like a damn baseball. i really like it, but i am considering going to the trophy taker top pin sight. it has 7 pins, and i would like that alot. on our 3d courses, there are some bluff shots, that can stretch out to 60-80 yards. not practical for hunting, though

I just bought a new Spot Hogg and love it. Quite pricey... but hey... I'm worth it.
