I love how everyone hates on the price but has no issue buying a scope that cost more than their rifle.

Lucas as always great information and put in a way that everyone can understand and appreciate. I always look forward to your reviews.

I totally appreciate the time & effort you put into making these reviews Lucas! I know this is a Garmin review but B-Stinger just sold another stabilizer thanks to Archery Talk!

I impulse bought a bow about a year ago, I'm getting pretty good with it now so it's becoming a hobby for me. Ive shot well over 200 times in the last few days. Haven't lost an arrow yet 😅

Great video! Saw these at my pro shop. Next year it will be on my bow

Currently are expensive and a bit heavy and bulky, but as the years pass and the competition intensifies this kind of sights will be only become cheaper, lighter and more compact, so I can see a future in which they dominate the market (at least in the countries and states in which are legally allowed). Good review.

Was going to get one, but after playing with the HHA Eotech set up, I decided to just go with normal sight. The HHA sight limits the range to 55 yards.

They still have traditional bubble. Perhaps in version 2 that will be developed to some sort of electric function with crosswind calculations.

I seen this at my local archery shop, if I'd had my bow with (son was getting some lessons) I would have it on my bow NOW!

Absolutely the best sight on the market today! Very much worth the money.

Lucas in your opinion could you set up pins out to 100 yds? Is the sight window long enough to achieve 100 yds. You said you were sighted in to 76 yrds , is there room to get to 100 yrds.

From my perspective: The Garmin Xero A1i is definitely the future of archery optics moving towards more reliable shot placement. The inbuilt range finder with cant compensator, no clutter FoV and multi-profile arrow storage (different game) makes it appealing. The price is justified and reasonable provided the LRF is capable of reliable accuracy to 200m (to know how much distance to close). Are there testing reports released for the maximum range, accuracy (with Std. Dev.)? If Garmin desire to push the envelope further with their archery tech, I would like to see a windage correction capability for longer range shots. Reasoning and justification: I prefer a bow over a rifle for hunting medium game (feral goats and pigs) as it's illegal to own suppressors in Aus.

Good for stationary hunting like blinds or tree stands, but confident it would function well in pnw woods crawling through timber looking for Elk. Lens would get covered in water trash and leaves. How is the glare from the led pin? Can it's size be changed?

Great info, Got mine and setup was like 30 min ;).....I noticed that the “right arrow button” did not have quite the same plastic “sound” / feedback as the others buttons do you experience the same thing? Thx

First review I’ve seen it answers the question of how does this work if you’ve got such varying arrow weights I would think if you compared ranging a target and then setting up with your traditional set up this would be much faster less movement at first I thought this thing was a gimmick but there might be some validity to it

as always great review did you mention the inner diameter of the sight view ? im not sure if the comment make sens to you ? i mean the sight view diameter ? thanks a lot

Thanks. Been waiting on a legit review of this sight.

Can someone help me with a question I have. If I set my first pin at 20 YARDS, will it give me a pin closer than 20 yards should I need one? I'm afraid of a deer walking under me at 5/10 yards and not having a pin.

is there a newer model releasing anytime soon? i see the video is over 2 years old.

Fantastic as usual

I love your videos Lucas, but you gotta turn up the juice to your mic. I've got kids man, I need more volume, lol. Keep 'em coming!

Thats awesome.

Great review, I know there are some states in the US where it is illegal. Do you know what the status is in Canadian provides and territories?

like mine, but I constantly have to check my brightness on my reticle and pins, can be not bright enough or too bright in a hunting situation. The monitoring brightness throughout a hunt is a necessity as light conditions change

The sight is nice but the view thru the plastic (glass) was not very clear to me!! I think if it was real glass it would be better. What’s your thoughts everyone?

What kind of stabilizer do you have on that triax

When is this going to be legal in the western states?

If you have ranged it before or know the distance apriori, can you set the sight to show the pin at this distance right away as you pick the bow up without prior ranging?

Have you experienced any fogging in the sight? Does it do well in low light conditions?

So what i get from it it's like a red dot sight, but for your bow and with archery related features.

It's hard for me to explain this without having the sight, but i want to know how you would do a walk back tuning process and broadhead tuning process and its hard for me to envision how to do french tuning, walk back tuning and broadhead tuning with this sight because its not like a regular sight. Should you do your regular sight in process first before doing walk back tuning and broadhead tuning? Or if not, will the sight allow you to turn it on and start shooting using the pin without going through the steps for sighting it in? I'm asking this question because I'm wondering if this sight will allow you to shoot in a walk back tuning fashion to check to make sure your rest is lined up before doing the actual sighting in process?

I have it..it freezes even with upgrade ..its heavy ..gotta adjust pins all the time for brightness etc ..

Does it compensate for up or down angles?

I wish it had a string or limb driven range activation.

How’s it perform in rain

How about the peglum sight sight in at 10 yards good out to what ever u feel comfortable shooting no batteries

Has somebody tested the $200 chinese copy?

A review with no cons? What are downsides besides price..

Im more of a no sight guy when it comes to bows but this is hella cool

Is their a maximum range distance

This is a really nice sight probably the best . In theory this could cost around 500 $ but it is going for a 1000$. Is it something people would buy it is really hard to say. I am guessing if someone can use this sight and prove he can be a better hunter with it then a regular sight range finder combo then people would really consider. By the way the range finder part in this sight is not going to measure up to 400 $ traditional range finder. This has to be proven in the filed where it will count not on static target practice .

on one hand i thought wow, were is the challange of bowhunting and is this fair? On the other hand, how many of us mis-judged yardage and wounded an animal? I can see this being the wave of the future once the competition comes into play and drives the price down.

It’s just a way to make us archers lazy. Time at the range will be shorter and more time on the smart phone, by the way the volume is fine.

do you shoot with 1 or 2 eyes open?

I want one

Mission mxr review soon?

Does it work ik the cold like 10 or 0 degrees in Minnesota it gets cold

What is the max range youve been able to shoot?

Good Lord they have made bow hunting complicated.

Ive been bowhunting long enough to have learned. Keep it simple. Last thing i want is another peice of tech shitting itself on a shot of a lifetime. My sight of choice a spotthogg hunter set and forget. Never lets me down. Plus this thing cost $1,400 here in australia my Mathews triax cost me $1,500. Ill leave this one to the tech heads.

Is he really quite for anyone else? I'm at max volume on my phone

Up next from garmin!!! The all new guided arrow.just aim youre bow in the direction of the deer, relese & the arrow is guided like a missle & will follow youre animal thru thickets & limbs & make direct contact to the vitals! No worries on tracking.the arrow also has a gps tracking compomet that inserts in the knock so you can easily retreive youre game!

I don’t know if you can be totally objective after going hunting with Garmin before your review

Where is it LEGAL. That's the real question.

Is it not possible to make.this technology without having to push a button to range?

Pope and Young eligible? I would think no.

800 dollars um no sir

1000 bucks though....no thanks

I don’t even own a bow... why am I watching this?

$200 to save arrow profiles, give me a break! Garmin should have just stuck with 1 overpriced sight.

I've never understood why people bow hunt with more than 2 pins

To large and bulky for where I hunt. Perhaps Garmin will make a more affordable, smaller one eventually. Until then the sales will be small.

Oh hell no I went on amazon to but this it’s 900 hundred dollars.

Same as the Indians had. I mean I’m all for advancing the sport and technology but at some point I think we go too far for hunting. Where do we stop? Does anyone think this is a bit much? Remember when you had to judge yardage? I’d be all for using this at a 3D shoot or something but I’ll stick to my pin for hunting. Great review of product. Thank you.

You know what I realize that it is a really well-made in a really nice site but that is way too much money for a site for compound bow come on thousand dollars $800 for a site Garmin got to be out of their mind only the guys that get paid the big dollar that are on the Outdoor Channel would be able to afford that your average archery Hunter is not paying 800 to $1,000 for a sight unbelievable

aimbot

Why wouldn’t your just buy a whole other bow I’d rather have a better bow than a better site

"Another second or two" well youve unspld me, i thought it was cool but id rather use a 3 pin sight and save $1k to save those two seconds😂

Buck of a lifetime is under your stand. Dead battery. Crap...

This for someone who got more fuckn money they do since

That rain or melted snow in that glass.... no matter what you say it will not work it will affect your view. And for $800 base!!!!!! Get out of town lol
