What are your thoughts about the new Garmin Xero X1i Crossbow Sight?

@MrTNBassmaster 3 года назад

Want now . Not when this season is over

@ryanmickley3226 3 года назад

Just like anything else electronic, probably great when it works, and it will probably work the majority of the time, but there will undoubtedly be those situations where it will "freeze", as I have read about the Garmin compound bow sight doing. That is just the nature of technology. $1500 is way too much for me to put into a sight, even when I am using a top of the line bow or crossbow. I want to know for certain that my scope is going to work every single time I go out to hunt.

@FlyingHighVeteran 3 года назад

I have to admit being rather intrigued by the sight--having the ability to range and shoot from one device certainly will improve the odds of a successful hunt & ethical kill. The only down side I am seeing is the sheer size of the unit and how far it sits up above the crossbow.

@billsmith147 3 года назад

A 3.5 magnification is fine for up to a 30 yard shot, when you get to a 50 yard shot you want to move that magnification up to a 6.5. After that at 80 yards you want a 8-10 magnification or better. That why a normal run of the mill rifle scope is 3-9X40. This Garmin scope is stationary at 3.5 MM. I will pass on this scope and keep my Sig Sauer Sierra 3 BDX 3.5-10X 42 MM and Kilo 1400 6X20MM rangefinder that is transferring its data 4 times a second to the scope to position the holdover dot where the deer is at.

@FlyingHighVeteran 3 года назад

@@billsmith147 With respect I disagree, 3.5 or even less magnification is just fine well beyond 30 yards. I have a Hawke crossbow scope on my son's Barnett Whitetail Hunter II and I've tested it out to 70 yards & it did so very accurately and easily--plus I could have taken it out farther with no issues. I get it, magnification can definitely be an asset but it is not that critical on a crossbow.

@GH0ST369 5 месяцев назад

Garmin needs to increase the optical zoom and speed up the lock-on. A bonus would be thermal version.

@ML-ks2lj 2 года назад

Would really be awesome with flir for that set shooting time of day or night, beginning shooting times often in the morning are far to drop for me to see clearly to identify my target

@Silence.Crossbow Год назад

Hi man, thanks for the video. does this rangefinder work in dark night?

@wcwcgarner2717 3 года назад

1399 for the scope. But you know I have to have it.

@ShooterMcNut 3 года назад

Really cool scope, just well above my pay grade. $1400 scope on top of a $3000 crossbow. Really cool technology though.

@davidragland3535 3 года назад

It's even better when the crossbow & scope are given to you or this guy for free. Regular guys like have to pay for ours like always.

What cross hair was that in your sight for that shot? 1st or 2nd one down?

@WhitetailDiaries 2 года назад

Carlos, I'm not sure I totally understand your question. When using the Xero crossbow sight after you get a range locked in you have a single aiming dot and that's your aiming point. Standing by to help if this didn't answer your question. Thanks

Congratulations nice buck! Question does that xero scope record?

@WhitetailDiaries 3 года назад

No we shot all the video you see using our phone through the scope piece. We sort of rigged that out to make it happen or just sat the phone on the stock. Adding a way to record the shot down the road sure would be a great addition

@timothybird5565 3 года назад

@@WhitetailDiaries there are rumors that Garmin is developing its next generation to record, if that's true I will have it. There was a big price jump on May 1st, wonder if the next generation has anything to do with that?

@timothybird5565 3 года назад

Love my Tenpoint Havoc Xero, a combination made by 2 great companies.

@jaytrock3217 3 года назад

Very interesting sight. Does a great job. Takes the fun and skill out hunting in my opinion. The only time I like technology like this is in the military, when someone will shoot back at you. I like clean kills, but when you introduce this to hunters most will push the limits vs a 90% clean kill. Thanks for posting.

@bsdhunter 2 года назад

What tripod are you using?

@WhitetailDiaries 2 года назад

That's the Bog Death Grip. Best tripod we've found for anytime we're needing one from rifles, crossbows, handguns.

@goneflying140 3 года назад

How do you calibrate it to your bow's speed?

@WhitetailDiaries 3 года назад

It's menu driven during the set up, you simply scroll down or up from starting point. SUPER easy to do.

@timothybird5565 3 года назад

You provide the information by either using a chronograph or answer the questions that the Garmin will ask you, if you don't have a crony, it allows you to make arrow/bolt profiles,such as for hunting and or target shooting. Much much more. It projects a dot on the glass, and not the actual animal or target. No more gap shooting with pins.

@Ryder-qx1df 2 года назад

🤣 Pretty chilly gunna be in the 50s 🥶 that's hilarious to me. I bet it must be a bugger being so warm you gotta find the critter right away and I suppose you don't get to hang them unless you got a walk in cooler. I live in northern MN I'd like to deer hunt in the 50s once.

@WhitetailDiaries 2 года назад

For that time of the year it was chilly....PLUS I'm a bit soft anyhow being a Texas so when it does drop below 50 I look for the long Johns! Thanks for the comment

@MrTNBassmaster 3 года назад

wish more people would use crossbows that would cut down, I bet 70% of the wounded game animals.

@itsyaboimat2393 3 года назад

Yeah but there's a weird hatred towards crossbows in the archery community in terms of bow hunting, I use one Because I have Cerebral Palsy so I can't hunt with a regular bow but I don't get the hate towards crossbows

@williamdemon66 3 года назад

Game is wounded just as easily with a crossbow as they are with a compound. It boils down to the shooters training and confidence in the shot and even then it still happens. It’s an unfortunate part of hunting.

@taofouajarodeve 3 года назад

Since moving to a crossbow, my shots have been more precise and speedy kills. Less suffering and complete pass thru with every shot. I’ve done my 30 years of vertical bows so it my time to use crossbows.

@zzz7zzz9 3 года назад

Most people use a bow for the challenge. The industry is removing that as much as possible.

@@justincammidge it's advancements like this, that actually are detrimental. Where i live, they tried to ban crossbows from bow season, this year. Luckily, that was one of the proposals that didn't pass. And the reason, was because they use scopes.

@@zzz7zzz9 they wont pass it because now days believe it or not less people hunt that's why in WV they let people use crossbows to bring back the sport

@zzz7zzz9 3 года назад

@@MrTNBassmaster it was actually bow hunters recommending it be passed. The typical hunter-division that exists. The elitest 'i'm a bow-hunter' attitude, they think the bow-season should be just for them. They hate crossbows. Similar to how there's elitest fly-fishermen, thinking they are better, because they use a flyrod.

@WhitetailDiaries 3 года назад

Keep in mind this isn't a vertical bow, it's a crossbow and a totally different means and method to hunt with so sure you'll see some states enact different seasons and some won't so always check for the area you're hunting. Finally it's still hunting it's just a different style of hunting no different than rifles, handguns, recurves, muzzleloaders, shotguns etc are different and in the end everyone hunts with what they want and how they want to hunt.

If a deer has bedded down right nearby and you go to yelling and screaming you risk spooking that deer out of where he bedded down to die. Do we know it's dead and or running dead it's not uncommon but todays crossbows and bows are so fast it's better to be safe than sorry
