Archery Sights ad Nauseum: Dialed Archery Pruf

[@MrChiumiento]

I love the mess up on the end of it awesome. Glad to see your back, making videos again, man I love listening to you talk in ad nauseam about this stuff. Most of my favorite KZbinrs are people who do no BS reviews. Hope to hear more of you in the future.

[@ajbholsters2035]

@@MrChiumiento thank you very much. I figured I'd throw in some bloopers at the end 😜. I'm glad you enjoyed the video. I learned a few things about editing from this video, so hopefully I'll get them out on a more regular basis.

You are, good sir, the absolute best reviewer of anything on KZbin. Could you please start reviewing skis, bikes, fly rods, and all things I may need some insight to in the future. It is obvious you are curling up in front of the camera with a cold glass of I don’t give a fuck and not the koolaid these companies spew. Your insights are clear and as logical as a Vulcan delivered with the attitude of a Klingon that took some Xanax after a Snoop Dog concert. Keep up the great content!! Thank you!!

[@ajbholsters2035]

@@derekmeier2803 thank you very much. 🤣 I got a good laugh at your description of my style. I'm also an old-school Trekkie, so that made it better. I sometimes refer to how I review things as "weaponized autism", but I like your description as well. If I start any new hobbies, I'll expand the "ad Nauseum" series to include them. With most of the major archery channels essentially being extensions of a company's marketing department, i figured there was a place for someone with no incentive to promote the products to give a fairly objective assessment of them so the customer understands what they're getting. So far most of the reception has been positive, so I will keep going with it. I won't be cuddling up to the manufacturers any time soon, but that's not my goal. Anyway, thanks for the laugh and stay tuned for more 👍.

Great video. In my correspondence with precision cut archery their algorithm accounts for the slope of the aes. I’ve had excellent luck using a lab radar and their software using down range speeds

[@ajbholsters2035]

@@sarcazmo thank you very much for checking out my content, and for the information. That's good to know that there are services available that match tapes to the changes made by the AES system.

Left hander here, I can confirm that my Pruf is a true left hander.

Think the Axcel Driver is going to be the winner

[@ajbholsters2035]

@@ctreece7506 probably, but I would have preferred the layout of the Driver before it underwent "improvements" to avoid possibly being sued at some point in the future. I'll cover all that in the Driver's own review when I receive mine.

[@ctreece7506]

@ yeah, that windage knob being on the inside may be a little inconvenient. Buttttt I bet the clicks on that knob will actually work lol

[@dougkiefer7073]

I wanted the Axcel Driver but I’m impatient so ordered the Pruf plus that 3 pin horizontal is my jam

[@ajbholsters2035]

@@dougkiefer7073 thanks for watching. Yeah, I ordered a Driver in November when they put them up on Lancaster's website. Hopefully it'll ship some time this year. I don't think you'll be disappointed with your choice 👍.

[@mackstrate6235]

Dialed has confirmed they don’t have enough windage on Hoyt in particular and have a new updated pic mount to correct this issue. I believe Prime users may need it as well unless. Just FYI.

[@ajbholsters2035]

@@mackstrate6235 that is good to know. Thank you for the information 👍.

[@bulletsandbroadheads]

Another great video. I am going to wait till you get the axcel driver. Dialed, ultraview, or axcel. For the price of these i want to get what suits me best. Either way they are all good.

[@ajbholsters2035]

@@bulletsandbroadheads thank you very much for watching and for the compliment. God only knows when the Driver is going to show up, but i think it will be a contender. The "improvements" made to it in light of stepping on another company's patent pending designs knocks it down a few pegs, but I'll know for certain when I have it. I also broke down and ordered a HHA Nytrx. It might be getting delivered tomorrow or Wednesday (I order it on Saturday and got a shipping notification today), so I'll add that to the mix. The HHA sights (particularly the Tetra and NyTrx) share a number of similarities with the Dialed Arxos and Prüf, so it might end up being a less expensive alternative. All I'll need after that is a Spott Hogg Boonie and I can do an ultimate head to head comparison. Like you said, they're all good. It just comes down to the features you want abd the layout of their controls and sight tapes.

[@YoureSoVane]

The gasket on my lens kit got messed up. I asked if I could order a replacement and the response was a tracking number. They sent me three replacements for free. The warranty is not a joke.

[@ajbholsters2035]

@@YoureSoVane that's good to hear. I'm glad it's there but I'm hoping not to need to use it 👍

[@bkurjiaka]

I agree that renaming things is unnecessary. Naming your products off is usually a TM thing. As always I appreciate your videos.

[@ajbholsters2035]

@@bkurjiaka thank you for checking out my content. You're right. I'm sure some of it is for trademark purposes, like the Void Dial. Renaming the other elements like the scope is, as you say, unnecessary. It just invites confusion.

[@MrChiumiento]

When you finally get the driver site, can you tell me if it’s possible to use the side mount bar as your bridge lock bar or will you need to buy the bridge lock attachment bar because I have a Matthews as of right now, but I am definitely getting a different brand bow in the future Most likely one with the pic mount

[@ajbholsters2035]

@@MrChiumiento will do 👍. I'm curious about that as well because neither the side mount dovetail nor the bridge lock have an offset built into them, and the Driver doesn't look to have a lot of windage adjustment. This is more an issue for the side-mount, but I'll follow-up on both points when I can.

[@ghosttrail8939]

Are you going to try the new hotshot release

[@ajbholsters2035]

@@ghosttrail8939 absolutely. I ordered one as soon as it went live on their website, and will get a review out as soon as it shows up. Right now I'm trying to review products as they show up. Next review is going to be on the HHA Nytrx since it showed up 2 days after I ordered it.

[@Gibsonlife573]

With ranch fairy my understanding is this would you rather hit somebody with a toothpick or with a log I don't prescribe to it all the way but I tell you now I do shoot a 500 grain Arrow 550 grains sorry and I can reach out touch something at 80 yards so I'm good with that I ain't going to shoot at nothing past that but I have seen a huge difference I have shot one with the light arrow and a mechanical and then I have shot one with a heavier arrow and a fixed blade and it's a big difference

[@ajbholsters2035]

@@Gibsonlife573 that's a fair assessment. I brought him up because a heavier arrow is going to require a longer sight tape, and it limits the amount of available arrow clearance before the bottom of the scope gets in the way of the arrow. This is likely not an issue for most archers since they're not going to loose arrows at long distances when hunting most game (Elk and other large animals withstanding) but since this sight is aimed and those who hunt and also attend TAC events (which I think that group is more likely to buy it) where 100+ yard targets are common, holdovers or secondary pins may be required if the arrow is too heavy or the draw weight is too light to launch it with enough momentum.

[@timbow50]

The design of the UV and this one are 100% not appealing to me at all. And , naturally,the cost. I’ll just stay with my CBE tl slider 3 pin. I custom made the top and bottom have blue fiber optic which is so great for night hunting pigs.

[@ajbholsters2035]

@@timbow50 thank you for watching and for your perspective. You found a sight that meets your expectations and it sells at a lower price point. Nothing wrong with that 👍.
