The NEW IQ PRO XT BOWSIGHT is designed with a 6โ extension bar which allows you to easily size the scope housing to your peep for precise alignment. The IQ Pro XT also features a 50% smaller Retina Lock for twice the sensitivity and increased downrange accuracy. RETINA LOCK TECHNOLOGY provides instant feedback that will identify even the slightest torque or anchor point change. The adjustment knobs that allow quick and simple adjustment of the elevation and windage to precise positions. Tool-free locking knobs allow you to lock your windage and elevation positions in place without the use of any tools. Review: THE BEST YOU CAN GET. BUY ANYTHING ELSE AND CALL YOURSELF A FOOL. - This is the best sight I've ever used. Before this I had tried my friends iq 7 pin and it was pretty amazing. This blew the doors off of it. If old iq sights gave you security with distance- this makes your bow have some "reach out and tough me" status... It has a full 3 inches extension BEYOND what the other iq sights offer. This is pretty big deal the further the sight is away from the body of the bow means better accuracy. The retina lock is significantly smaller. Which is good and bad at the same time. If you're good at keeping the same draw once you feel it the first time and then are able to repete this by feeling then the smaller retina lock is awesome for being able to see small imperfections in your stance and anchor point. HOWEVER- - if you draw back and can't find a decent anchor point or stance, then you will be taking way too long trying to fix your anchor or stance for the retina lock is HYPER sensitive. I LOVE how the sight has micro adjustments with individual clicks. Each click moves the windage or elevation .015 mil from what the box says. Either way it's awesome for you can finally feel the adjustment not just watch for the edge of the sight to barely move up or down. +++ for shooter with bows that are in the blistering 330+ range this sight is really for you. Out if the box the spacing for the pins in nearly perfect till 60 yards. Then the distance and math starts to play in with the arrow type you have and such. This means that you don't really need to do much to the fine tuning of the first 5 pins. The last 3 you adjust down just a little for each if any at all dependin on which end of the 300+ fps your shooting with your bow. Example being I shoot a 2013 hoyt spyder turbo with 400 grain easton arrows at 340+ fps at 70lbs. I only had to move the 60, 70 and 80 yard pin a tiny tiny bit down for the distance drop. Freaking awesome for it makes set up and sight in super simple and makes it easier to focus on just form and release and not pin fine tuning.+++ If you don't get the bottom line at this point, I feel you should have already ordered this sight by this point in the review. Groups where out of the box better then I've ever placed. I now don't have to worry bout if the shots going to be on, I now worry how much it's going to be off from my mark by. You'll be placing bottle caps for targets at 50 yards. That's how accurate you'll be getting. No more "6" kill zone" bull... you now get to be a woods surgeon with a arrow as a scalpel picking at which side of the ventriculars you'll be severing. A+ product. Review: IQ Pro XT sight is a winner - I consider myself a beginner to intermediate shooter. I'm consistent in my groups but every now and then my shots go off by up to 4 inches at 20 yards. I spotted the IQ Pro XT sight while doing research on how to develop consistent form and decided to give it a try. The "Retina Lock" made sense to me when I visited the IQ website. I've now had the bow sight for two days. After carefully following the set up instructions I discovered their claims of improved groups and accuracy are right on target (pun intended). When I take the time to make sure the black dot is centered in the green, the arrow ends up within 1/2 inch of where I am aiming. The retina lock helped me identify why some of my shots were going wild. Sometimes I'm in a hurry and "pull the shot" but more often, the variance is due to very tiny amounts of hand torque. My groups are now 3/4 inch in diameter at 20 yards after only 2 days of using the sight. My Pro XT sight arrived the day after I ordered it and the clear plastic box (inside a card board box) was in good shape. There is a note on the side of the box I wasn't aware of: "IQ Pro Retina Lock is designed for the experienced shooter. It's precise alignment creates more accuracy and muscle memory. It gives instant feedback that will identify even the slightest torque or anchor point change." Since I consider myself a beginner/intermediate, I might not have ordered the bow sight if I had read this text elsewhere. Another surprise: the bow sight is metal and heavy compared to plastic bow sights. It will add weight to your bow. I'm glad I ordered the IQ Pro XT sight and if you already have fairly consistent form, this bow sight can help you identify issues with your form and release. If you don't already have decent form, you won't be able to set up the sight. The first step is to zero in the traditional sight then you adjust the retina lock to match your already fairly consistent form. Definitely not a bow sight for beginners but an excellent sight for intermediate and advanced archers. UPDATE: After a couple of weeks of using the new bow sight I noticed the light green retina lock cover was cracked. I contacted desertcart and a replacement arrived the very next day. The second bow sight had three cracks in the light green plastic. Another call to desertcart with a long explanation and an emailed photo of the cracks resulted in another bow sight being sent to me. It arrived a couple of days later and was in perfect condition. desertcart's customer service is one of the best I've ever dealt with.

Great sight. I installed the pro xt last summer ...
Great sight. I installed the pro xt last summer and after shooting it all season decided to purchase a second one for my backup bow. Truly enjoy the 2nd axis feature, one set I feel much more confident. Prior I was continually concentrating on leveling the bubble, now it falls right into place.

Not that much better than the 'budget' models
So I like this sight a lot. I like the metal construction. I also like the clickable tool-less adjustments. It does the job and now that I've figured out some of the quirks, it works well. I had a different (non-'pro' model) IQ site previously and there are several noticeable differences. The retina lock reticle/sight picture was much larger on my last sight. Perhaps because this sight sits farther away from the bow, that influences the size of the reticle, but it still seems smaller overall and its a little harder to use as a result. I don't personally find any advantage in having a proportionally smaller reticle and miss the larger, seemingly more helpful reticle of my old sight. Additionally, I found that I cannot use this site at all unless I adjust it so that its centered at rest using only my peripheral vision. If I try to focus on the retina lock reticle and then set the center point, when I shift my gaze back to the target, it just doesn't work. It took some experimenting to figure this out, and this is substantially different from my old sight. Again, it seems a little less user friendly than my last sight. Lastly, make sure you loosen all the thumb screws and adjust the up and down and side to side adjustments just a little out of the box. When it came from the factory, it was tightened down so tight that it torqued the entire housing and I thought my sight was bent or defective. when I loosened all the screws tho and hand tightened them, it mostly corrected this over-torqueing. Overall I'm happy with this sight, but I don't think the upgrade was worth the money. Just my opinion.

Also I don't have those wild flyers like I used to
This Retina Lock Technology really works. I was torqing the grip and didn't even know it until I got the IQ PRO. The Retina Lock tells you immediately when you are toqing or your anchor point has changed. Went from 6 inch groups to 2 inch groups at 20 yards. Also I don't have those wild flyers like I used to. I like the XT model "extended length" feature especially since my up close eye sight is not as good as it used to be. Moving the sight out improves your accuracy and also brings the sight pins in focus. I'm really impressed with this sight.

So now I can play AT&T
This was purchased to be dismantled. IQ bowsight co. doesn't sell extra pins. They say "The sight can't be dismantled to add the pins". It can , and I did. I removed all of the pins from the above "LEFT-HANDED" sight, including the centering optics and added them to my right-handed one. I also swapped my right-hand mounts for the left ones. I now have a sight with 9 pins (One to many. Room only to spread 8 (90 yard pin)). This is made possible because I use the sight extention from the left-handed one. My sight is worth $300. It took 2 $150 sights to make mine possible. AND IT IS WORTH IT! I'm shooting 20 oz. Water bottles at 80 yards. My pins start at 20 yards and I have one each for every 10 yards out to 90 yards. I'm an avid bow hunter and am using a Mathews Drenalin. Great speed. So now I can play AT&T. Yes I can reach out and touch someone (DEER, BEAR, TURKEY, SQUIRREL, RABBIT.....you get the picture.) For directions on this feel free to send a request.

Strong. But not bright
Its well built but the retina is gard to adjust. And the pins aren't bright at all. Not as bad as some sights but not bright by any means. The 2 of the red pins are really dull

Not good for low light conditions
The fiber optics aren't great. Pins don't light up as much as other much lower cost sights. I had to buy a sight light to add extra brightness. With the sight light, I am very pleased with the product.
