New Bow Sights for 2023

From standard 3-pin to riser-mounted adjustable makes, 2023’s bow sight crop is great. Aside from increased customization options in pin size, color, number, and other make-it-your-own features, a significant 2023 sight theme is a single vertical post with multiple fiber-optic pins set along that post. Another prominent notice is mounting options. This year’s class is in a league all its own, from riser-mounted models to detachable brackets to standard brackets.

Spot-Hogg always finds a way to impress, and 2023 is no different. Enter the Fast Eddie PM. Wearing a Pic-Mount bar that attaches directly to the front of many modern-day bow riser Picatinny-rail systems, the Fast Eddie PM reduces overall bow weight, ensures absolute lockdown, and is tough as nails. The Fast Eddie PM has 2nd- and 3rd-axis leveling, comes with MRT sight rings, and is available in Spot-Hogg’s Single-Pin, Double Pin, Triple Stack, and 3-, 5-, or 7-Pin housings. The 6061 aluminum finish is a fade, chip, and scratch-resistant Type II anodized hard coat, and bowhunters get all the same features that have made the Fast Eddie a tried-and-true sight.

When a sight maker creates a bow sight that allows one to customize everything from the tape location (inside or outside) to the frame to the housing to pin size and more, bowhunters take notice. That’s the case with Dialed Archery, a company that’s creating a 2023 buzz. Made in the USA and branded with a lifetime warranty, the ARXOS Series with MAG-3V pins is sure to be a top choice. The housing, known as the MAG, is color-customizable and is fitted with a top bubble level and a single vertical post with a trio of fiber-optic aiming points. The VOID Dial Wheel with Angled Elevation reduces the chances of arrow and vane contact with the bottom of the sight housing, which means increased downrange capabilities.

TRUGLO Veros 3-Pin

TRUGLO Veros 3-Pin

Three-pin sights are popular for many reasons. First, housing clutter is reduced, and three seems to be the magical number for setting pin distances of 20, 30, and 40 yards — common ranges in the whitetail woods. However, shooters can customize the three moveable pins on the Veros. RizeWrap angled fibers hold increased light to ensure maximum pin brightness in low light, and the Pro-Brite pin design further boosts pin visibility and ensures durability. Mid-bracket elevation and windage adjustments make sighting in easy, and the Tru-Touch soft feel technical coating reduces game-spooking noises.
