Hi Tom, we do have one we would like to build in the future but have several other projects we believe you may like also in the works. We hope to get to that one sometime next year.

Tom I took the sight and extrensions to Ben. We discussed the issues with the sight and believe the setup is a very good one and will be making some changes. Materials and some bearings will help and when done believe will work great. Will keep you up to date as we get more information. Ben is also working on several Oneida Projects and is very busy with his other work

Bob, great to hear the project is in route to us. Ben is looking forward to seeing this new project. And has some good stuff for oneida bow shooters. We have a couple upgrades for the oneida eagle bows in the works as well.

Just to update on the project. It was shipped from Canada on May 3rd and it just crossed the border on May 15th. I had thought Joe had it and in talking with him today he said he had not seen it .

I took out tracking on the pkg. so jumped on the computer and found that it is on a snail pace.

So, Joe you should see it within a day or two with hope.

Ben gets a hold of this it should not take long and some test sights would be no long away.

More good stuff on the way as we dusted off some old project to send to the shop.

Hey Scott good idea on the pendulum but if I could make a suggestion. I think if you sight it in @ 18 yards on the ground from a tree 20 feet high with a 250fps arrow shoot shoot accururatly to 40 yrds.

Thanks Jody. I found that if I sight it in around 27 yards, 285fps, from a 12 foot platform that I'm good from straight down to 30+ yards. That's why it's handy to have it on the 5519. It makes those tweeks quick and easy. Another feature that I've integrated is an adjustable maximum swing. Every pendulum stlye sight I ever used needed some at-home engineering for those hard angle shots. By adjusting the end of travel, you're bang-on just about to the base of the tree...

Yeah, we're having fun!

Hey All,
Glad you guys like the sight. Actually, it's designed to attach to an HHA 5519, and in under a minute. The red dot version works on an HHA platform as well. Awesome sights in their own right. After using several other pendulum style sights, never completely satisfied with any, I made one that was solid, smooth, and the sight window stays perpendicular to your line of sight. I think it helps me keep the aperture centered through the peep hole. The first time I tried it, I had to check it from the side because I wasn't even sure it had moved! Both still need some fine touches before I'll be satisfied. It's been about a four year thought process sitting in a whole lot of tree stands, but they're turning into something cool.

Anyway, nothing worse than a newbie that won't shut up, so, it's nice to be on the sight. Some of you I already know, the rest I look forward to meeting.

Thanks,
Scott

I would be interested in just the slider, but the pendulum option is like frosting on the cake. I have teh pollington version that has an adjustment on the mounting bracket, it's just not as friendly as what's out there for pin sights.

Went over to Scotts today and got two of the proto types. The first one I posted was a revised version from the original that had a few more issue because the machine guy did not have the knowledge to make this work.

Original first proto;

Scott had another qualified machine person look at the system and he did some rework which actually was closer to Scotts oringinal concept.

Revised system;

With Scotts permission we will have Ben (See post on limb cups) look at this and see if he can machine the revised bracket and production costs.

Seeing the great work he did on the limb cups I am sure he can help us with this project also.

Bob
