2017 Spot Hogg Hunting Gear

What’s new for Spot Hogg in 2017 for hunters?
As it turns out, quite a lot!

The Keeton
A brand new index finger/wrist strap/integrated-grip release. Sounds pretty busy right? Well, it is doing a lot. The release is called the Keeton, and the idea behind it is to allow you to draw like a thumb release with your hand holding the release, but when you’re ready to shoot you can release the handle and shoot with the index finger. I hope this makes someone rich, because its a brilliant new design! I personally tried out the Keeton at the ATA show and was amazed at how natural it felt. I was able to use all the muscles in my shoulders, back, and arm to draw. This made the draw super smooth and controlled, and I felt like I could hold for days. Then when I was ready to shoot, I simply let go of the handle, and it slid out of the way allowing for a index finger shot. The transition was amazing when you transfer control from the handle to the wrist strap. As you rotate your hand over to position your index finger for the shot, it simply feels like a natural movement. We did a couple draws without holding the handle, relying on just the wrist strap, and then a couple with the handle. I was really surprised at how much more control I had with the handle. I think this would be perfect for the beginner who wants a more controlled draw, but not ready to hunt with a thumb release. Or this would work well for someone who has pre-existing shoulder injuries. I think it would also be great for someone who is trying to increase their bow’s poundage. The best thing about the Keeton? The price. $99
Spot Hogg Sights
Moving on to sights, Spot Hogg has made some major improvements that trickle down to all of their sights. They have removed a few sights and added a new line as well. The Boss Hogg, Right On, and Real Deal are no longer a part of the line up. And new for 2017 is the Grinder. All of the Spot Hogg sights benefit from their new MRT (multi-pin, multi-ring) pin guard that replaces the small and large guard, but adds the Spot Hogg triple ring technology from the double pin scope.
MRT Pin Guard
Spot Hogg has done away with the old large and small multi-pin housings and consolidated to one single size housing (about 2”) with 3 sight ring options. The MRT is currently available in 3 or 5 pin configurations with the 7 pin coming soon. This same housing will work on ALL current Spot Hogg sights.


The Grinder
The Grinder replaces the Real Deal and the Right On. It’s a simple, solid, lightweight, bombproof sight. It’s completely adjustable except for 3rd axis, and competitively priced. I love this sight because it gets a Spot Hogg in reach of everyone financially, but you don't have to lose out on features or durability. It comes with the new MRT housing and you can get it with or without gang micro adjustability.

Fast Eddie and Fast Eddie XL
The Fast Eddie and Fast Eddie XL get the most exciting upgrade. I get calls weekly asking for a Fast Eddie XL with a Multi pin housing. And now Spot Hogg has it available with the new MRT multi pin housing. You can choose between 3, 5 and soon 7 pins.




Hogg It and Hunter
Not only does the fixed pin Hogg It and Hunter get the new 3, 5 and soon 7 pin MRT ping guard, but the Hogg It also comes with a lighter weight and longer sight bar. If you are looking for the best fixed pin sight available to hunters, this is it.
