That joker is wicked and very pricey. I’ll probably never own one because I absolutely do not want a glass lens on a bowhunting sight. https://gearjunkie.com/garmin-xero-a1i-bow-sight-review-field-hunt-test "I hate rude behavior in a man.

We just smell that way. Dayum. - AC870 Yessir! I’m always gonna shoot what makes me happy and I want everyone else to do the same!

I wouldn't want the lens but, hiking in 3-10 miles, that thing would worry me. Also, if it performs like a rangefinder in fog/rain, it could be a hunt killer.
