G5 Optix Sights
Loaded with Features for Bowhunting

G5 Optix XR Four-Pin Sight

Now, with the G5 Optix XR Four-Pin Sight, you can shoot with confidence at those longer ranges that before just happened to fall between your pins. When you got a shot at say 65-meters with a fixed-pin sight and your pins sere set at 60 and 70-meters, you were forced to guess. Now with the G5 Optix XR you simply dial in 65-meters on the floating pin and nail your target. The three upper pins are fixed on the standard manner for closer shots where precision isn't as critical.

The floating pin for the G5 Optix XR Sight remains under spring tension so that the oversized pin-calibration knob can be used to adjust the floating pin in one-meter clicks in seconds. The spring also removes any trace of vibration or residual noise. The G5 Optix XR also features Smart-Pin technology which allows precision adjustment for windage, elevation, and third-axis tuning of the fixed pins and the floating pin without the slightest deviation from the vertical axis of the bow. This latter feature is critical for long-range accuracy.

G5 Optix XR Two-Pin Sight

G5 Optix XR Two-Pin Sight is based on the same great sight as the four-pin version listed above, but obviously, with only two pins. This gives the shooter a clearer view of the target, especially at long ranges where this sight comes into its own. However, there are even more advantages to the XR2.

For one thing, the XR2 has quite a bit more room for pin travel and adjustment simply because there aren't any other pins to get in the way. The top floating pin is a "SmartPin" so that adjustments in the field can be made on the spot and quickly, and the pins won't deviate from the centerline when they are adjusted, a frustrating problem with many other sights. The bottom pin also floats and allows you to instant adjust to within one yard of error to the exact range of your target. That is an amazing degree of accuracy when you are shooting out to 65 or 70 meters and beyond. There is also an extra-large adjustment knob with high-visibility vinyl yardage tape to make the adjustment even easier. Plus, of course, there are 3X micro-adjustments for windage and elevation and third-axis tuning.

Another cool thing about the floating pin on the XR2 is that it is constantly under spring tension. This keeps the pin in place but allows the pin-calibration knob to be used to adjust the pin without having to loosen and retighten any screws, knobs or levers. One click of the knob gives an instant one-meter range adjustment. The spring tension also removes any trace of vibration or residual noise. There is no clicking noise to spook game but you can feel each one-meter detent snap cleanly into place.

G5 Optix LE 5-Pin Sight

The Optix LE 5-Pin Sight from G5 Outdoors is chockers with features that will appeal to the hard-core bowhunter and serious 3D shooter. With the G5 Smart-Pins technology, vertical pin adjustments are made with a single screw and the pin can be adjusted vertically without moving off the centreline. Once all your adjustments are made, each pin can be individually secured with a locking screw. Gang micro-adjustable windage, elevation and third-axis adjustments are quick, easy, and locked securely in place so there are never any surprises on those critical shots in the bush or on the range. The high-contrast sight level remains bright in low light and greatly facilitates tuning on all three axis.

Each of the five light-gathering and pivoted Smart-Pins is .029 inches in diameter and all components are machined from lightweight magnesium, which is as strong as aluminum but 32% lighter. Plus magnesium is much less prone to transmit vibrations than aluminium.

G5 Optix SE 3-Pin Sight

The G5 Optix SE 3-Pin Sight is the little brother to the Optix LE listed above. It uses the same lightweight magnesium housing and mounting arm with an integral visor and tough reliability that comes from the world renowned G5 bowhunting technology. The SE also uses the G5 Patented Smart Pin Technology and the incredibly accurate three axle micro-adjustment system.

G5 Optix Rock 4-Pin Sight

If you have always wanted a genuine G5 sight but couldn't quite justify the cost, you might want to look at the Optix Rock. In archery gear, as with everything else, quality costs money, and G5 has earned a well deserved reputation of manufacturing archery equipment of the highest quality possible. Now here is a four-pin sight with all of that uncompromising quality for just under $200.00 (AU$160.00) or slightly more for the Lost Camo finish.

The G5 Rock is built from solid aluminium, just like all the other G5 sights. This makes for lightweight, rock-solid dependability and one of the toughest sights on the market. the Rock is a quick and easy mount on nearly any bow made in the last fifteen years, and it is ambidextrous so it will go on right or left hand bows with a simple flip of the bracket and a few minor adjustments.

The Rock also features G5's unique Gear-Loc pin-adjustment system which works like a rack-and-pinion gear train to lock pins in place for precision elevation and windage settings with basic tools. The mounting bracket is reversible with offset mounting holes so there is a wide variety of possible setting positions. This feature makes it much easier to keep the pins centred in the pin guard for optimum sight picture.

G5 Rheostat Light Kit

The G5 Rheostat Light Kit features eight separate and distinct brightness levels from dim to very bright. The intensity of the light is adjusted with a rotating knob with eight click stops. The brightest setting is most often used in bright sunlight and the lowest in deep shade.

Proper use of the rheostat prevents the light from over illuminating the pins, which can render a sight difficult or impossible to use in low light at dusk or in the heavy bush.

The G5 Rheostat Light Kit has four different threaded adapters that will allow the light to be used with TruGlo, Copper John, Trophy Ridge, Extreme, Viper and most other popular sights. The light is powered by three size 373 hearing-aid batteries, which are commonly available in most outlets.
