Eliminator Pro Sight by Extreme Outdoor Products

    The Eliminator Pro is a 1 piece peepless sight system. With this sight, you will gain a few FPS since you don't need a peep sight or a kisser button, you can shoot earlier & later, and you don't have to worry about a peep not being lined up because your string twisted. It is good for people who have trouble seeing thru a peep sight or a right handed/left eye dominant, or visa versa, person. The design of the Eliminator Pro makes you come back to the same anchor point every time. You will also know if you are torquing your bow because you won't be able to see you pin if you are.      The sight comes with a DVD in which the creator of the sight, Mitchell, explains how to set up & sight in the sight. He then walks you thru it step by step on one of his bows. Set up is quick & easy. It's held on with 2 screws that are countersunk so if you ever take it off & put it back on, you will be dead on already. After getting it put on my bow, I took a shot to see where I was. I took a second shot like Mitchell says to do and cut a fletching off of my first arrow!

     The way the sight works is there is the sight house and then on the back of the mounting bracket there is another bracket that has a "Y" pin on it. In the bottom of the "Y" is a semi-circle, or pocket.


You come to full draw, line up your bottom pin in the pocket of the "Y". This is where and how you can tell if you are not at the same anchor point or if you are torquing your bow. If you aren't in the same anchor point or torquing your bow, the pin will not be in the pocket of the rear pin. You leave your bottom pin in the pocket & aim with whichever pin you need. I was concerned about how well I would be able to keep the bottom pin in the pocket & still aim with another pin accurately. I was worried that my accuracy would suffer from that, but Mitchell told me that when I get use to it & know that I am at the same anchor point & not torquing the bow, it would all line up & I would know it was lined up. Then all you have to do is glance down fast to check. I took it out the last weekend of deer season & was sitting in a cold blind. I would draw my bow back about every half-hour to stay loosened up. While I did that, I would close my eyes while drawing back. When I hit full draw and came to my anchor, I would open my eyes. Just like Mitchell said, my bottom pin was sitting right in the pocket every time.

     This is also a tuff sight. There is no plastic on the sight. The bracket & front pin housing is 6061 T6 aircraft aluminum. The pins are all steel. I took it down to TX for some hog hunting. The terrain was thick brush that we were hunting in on this trip. As we were walking, I had 2 arrows ripped out of my quiver, that's how thick it was. The sight held up great. Nothing wrong with it, not any scratches either.



     The Eliminator Pro is also a sight that an opposite eye dominant shooter can use. There is plenty of windage adjustment to both the front & rear sights to move it over for you. I'm not an opposite eye dominant shooter, so I couldn't test that out. there are several sets of mounting holes so you can set it where you want it. It comes with mounting holes for lights on both the front & rear sight pins. I found that the pins were bright even in low light without the use of a light, but the lights help. the mounting bracket has dovetails for a good, secure mount. The front sight has plenty of windage & elevation markings. The sight is a right or left handed bow sight.

     It comes in 3, 4, or 5 pin preset vertical pins. I wasn't sure about the preset part, but Mitchell got my bow speed & sent me the sight I needed. If you buy one, just call Mitchell before you do & he will get you the correct sight also. My 1st pin is set at 20 yards and the rest of the pins are accurate at 10 yard increments. There is also an adjustable horizontal sight box. You can change out the sight boxes very easily & accurately to customize the sight for what you're doing- hunting, spots, 3D, ect. It comes in black annodized, Lost Camo, or Real Tree camo.

     I was very hesitant about putting this sight on my bow because I like my peep and I have also tried another peepless sight. Installation is quick & easy. After shooting it, I found I was shooting more accurately. I had a clearer sight window & didn't have to worry about not seeing thru my peep because of low light. It is a well made & accurate bow sight. The Eliminator Pro did everything for me that it is advertised to do. It is easy to use once you get use to not having a peep on your string.
