Bad thing
Would make for shooting after hours easy and poachers dont need any more tools.

I'm thinking that it would be useful to learn to hold steadier.
A little better feedback than your sight to evaluate changes in form.
I wouldn't pay much for this since cheap lasers are available from many sources.

Interesting, but what's the point? That arrow is not going to go where the laser is aiming.

I might be wrong but I think the different color o-rings are to set each arrow up for a different yardage. So green would be 20 yards, red 30, and blue 40.

Really
It actually would work and Ill garantee I could bust knocks with this product especially after seeing it.
Pretty cool and most at the show liked what they saw but doubt if ever legal to use.

I agree! nothing but a gimmick and a novelty. Laser sights are nothing new. Archery specific laser sights have been around since at least the early 80's.
They have never caught on and for good reason. They are fun to play with, but like I said just a novelty

not legal in indiana, and also if you have a different broadhead for each range, that means you have to switch arrows while hunting, sounds like a joke to me, im all for new products but this is has to be the worst idea i have ever heard of.

I thought it was cool.. doubt i would use it in reality though, wouldnt want to have to try and grab the right arrow as my deer is moving closer...
Would be fun to play with though.. you set it up according to your sight pins.. i think they retailed for $135 a set... too much for me to spend just to play with, but pretty cool all the same.

I agree that the arrow isn't going to go where the Lazer is pointed, but I'll bet the lazer is going to point where the arrow is going. Of course this assumes the thing is mounted concentric to the arrow shaft (spin test) and even then it's going to be constantly changing with the arc of the arrow.

OK This product still has me scratching my head. Why a laser in a broadhead, what are you going to get out of that then a Laser mounted sight. I would like to be informed.
One thing i did think could be cool is that it would be interesting to see a super slo mo of the lasers reaction on the target as it is approaching the target. Just how far up and down and how big the dot gets before splat. Would the laser dot ever get smooth before impact. That could be cool to see, but to use out in the field, I just do not see it.
