Laser for a bow

[98ag]

Who has tried putting a laser on a bow. I have heard of people doing it to hunt hogs at night. Does it work well as a sight?

Crimson Trace made laser grips for bows. Tried one but it seemed to spook the hogs when it would hit them. Accuracy wise it was fine, but unlike a bow sight, you can only sight it in for one yardage so you have to hold over or under for targets at different ranges.

Do you have to be as carful with anchor points and things with the laser?

Tried is once & it was very cool - in the back yard.

The first deer I lined it up on saw the laser beam & took off like it was the scariest thing in the world.

I just had to shake my head and say 'oh yeah, I guess that Could happen!'. Never hunted with it again.

But yes, with a laser sight, you still have to do everything right to put the arrow where you want it to go.

Better off getting a sniper hog light for your bow

May be wrong, but don’t think you can use a laser for deer. Should be fine with hogs though
