undefinedLast week I mentioned Truglo’s PWR-DOT sight as an example of how far bowhunting technology has come. Need one more? Check out the compact, lightweight Covert sight from Apex Gear.

Launched at the 2014 ATA Show, the Covert is touted as the world’s first quick-change pin sight. Its VERSA-PIN technology allows you to change pin diameter and color from red to yellow or green instantly based on your personal preference or changing light conditions. The sight comes with two interchangeable sight pins--.019-inches and .010-inches in diameter. Extra-long green, red and yellow fully protected fibers are wrapped around the 1.8-inch diameter aperture with housing that permits vertical and horizontal tilt adjustments as well as adjustable second- and third-axis illuminaton levels.

The 8.5-ounce Covert sight is micro-adjustable for windage and elevation, sports an easy one-hand yardage adjustment knob and includes 60 pre-marked long-range yardage tapes and a push-button light for fast pin acquisition. If you’re in the market for a bow sight or you just want to try something new, visit www.apex-gear.com.

A dogger’s goal while pushing deer is to drive the prey into a pocket formed by others in his gang, those hunters who are posted about a hundred yards apart along strategic locations up to a half-mile away from the dogger’s starting point. When everyone is in position, the dogger weaves his way through the woods into the wind and pocket formed by the other hunters. The approaching sound of the dogger snapping twigs and crunching leaves alerts unsuspecting deer.
