Great write up. I'm seriously looking at this sight for my next bow.

 

I really want to get one, but I’d like to hear more on the 3 & 5 pin.

 

If they fixed the buzz on them then I might give it another try

 

Interesting to see that complaint on the Fast Eddie. I know exactly what you describe because my Hogg Father does it. It's something internal on the dial as I can take the sight off my bow, slap the dovetail in the palm of my had and get treated to the buzz.

 

I think the buzz I had on the first fast Eddie direct mount was the fibers in the scope.
I had an axcel accustat and it was way worse for noise to me. Got a 3 pin fast Eddie xl last summer and it was way quieter than my axcel.
For a hunting sight it’s really hard to beat the xl with a multipin head.

The buzz comes from the black backing paper on the inside of the sight housing. Piece of tape fixed mine right up; no more buzz

Can't for the life of me figure why people would want the Fast Eddie when they could get a Tommy Hogg.

 

Guessing the dovetail option is liked by a lot of people. :dontknow:[SUB][/SUB]

 

Thanks for posting. Good info here.

I have the 5 pin. I like it a lot!! I did the sight in procedure and it was pretty close. At 80 I needed to add 1.5 yards on level ground. Its possible I might need to try another sight tape. The zero stop feature makes returning to zero effortless.

I shoot mine with no rings on it and find I can see the level a little better.

The adjustments are easy and the pins all are very easy to realign after sighting in.

There is just the slightest amount of play in the mounting point where the sight mounts to thr vertical slider. It doesn't affect accuracy, but does create a vibration.

 

I would love to see them make a 4 inch dovetail version.
