About to buy a new Experience and was thinking of getting the react sight for it but was wanting some feedback from the ones who's tried it

i bought the react 5pin, love it! bright pins very easy to sight in.. and yes a bit on the heavy side.. the arm that mounts to my bow snapped but trophyridge CS is awesome! called them and with no questions asked sent me a replacment part!

I have the React One on my Diamond and like the sight a lot. Like was stated earlier, its HEAVY. I had been using the IQ 5 pin sight previously and the weight difference is very noticeable. The smart pin technology seems to work well, though I have only got to test it out to 40 yards so far.

5 pin love it, don't really see it as heavy but I worry about function and not extra ounce or so. I mounted sighted 20 in and moved back to 30 sighted it in stepped back to 50 adjusted a hair more and 60 is dead nuts on. If I miss it's MY FAULT.

Been using the 5 pin for over a year now. Several thousand shots with it and I am very satisfied. No problems with it at all and it works just as advertised.

I have a question for you all, I just ordered a new PSE Full Throttle and want to put my React One sight on it. I just am curious as to how it will work on a bow that is that fast? Has anyone had any issues with the smart pin technology on faster bows? it works well on my Diamond, but its no Full Throttle.

If you end up putting this sight on your Bowtech relatively soon, please let me know your thoughts.

I am actually going to a Bowtech dealer around Central Ohio next Weekend to shoot the Experience and a few others, and this sight is among the top of my list. I'd appreciate any kind of feedback with how it feels on the Bowtech.

Thanks!

Awesome technology, great customer service, tool less, but a bit heavy. Pros def out weigh the cons

I like my 5 pin React a lot. I think it has the .019 pins (something like that) and I could't shoot too consistently but then I started shooting with both my eyes open and I can drive tacks. It took me probably 30 minutes to sight in and get my pins EXACT and I've only had to make a couple minor adjustments since then when I fix my draw weight. I would recommend it to anybody.

I had mine on a hoyt rampage and I was no where near 280 lol and the sight worked great but it was too heavy especially since I had it out as far as it could go

I love this sight. I bought my first over a year ago and my second a few months . ago. They work great although I think I'll want to try the new React Trio when it hits the stores. 20yd pin, 30yd pin, and adjustable 40yd pin slider- out to 120 yds!

I don't know. There isn't any additional info out there that I have been able to find yet and no Q&A. The website goes through the sighting-in process, but it isn't all that clear to me how the 20 and 30 yd pins are adjusted. We'll probably have to wait until somebody gets their hands on one and does a Youtube on it.

I have 2 TR 5 pin, as stated they work as advertised,bright pins and ease of adjustment, sight in is a breeeze fine tuning the 50&60 with minor adjustments and your fine. Probably the single pin would be better for a really fast bow, less pin clutter.

I have one and I do like it. It was pretty easy to sight in but I don't know that it will make you a better shooter or anything. It didn't help me LOL :). I would recommend sighting in the 20 and then more like the 40 yard pin (3rd pin). Doing the 20 and 30 really didn't work so hot for me. You will see what I mean when you are sighting in. Don't forget that you can flip the mounting bracket if you "bottom out" the up/down adjustment. It is by design to allow for high and low anchor/peep preferences. A bigger advantage to me was finding the targets quicker with the bigger peep.
