While bowhunting I try to maximize the amount of time I spend in the field.  As stated in other evaluations, especially those last waning moments of legal shooting light when mature bucks make their appearance.  Being able to acquire the vitals on my sight pin quickly in low light may make the difference of getting a shot or passing up a chance of a lifetime. 

This is one of the many benefits of the Follow-Thru Rear Bow Sight.  By not having an enclosed sighting mechanism, such as a peep sight, you can extend your shooting time as well as lock on quickly to your target much like the open sights on a rifle.  This is accomplished with the Follow-Thru by working in conjunction with the front sight of your bow.  Tests confirmed acquiring a target is much quicker in low light circumstances, especially in heavy canopy areas of woods.  The glowing reference pin also helped in the lineup. 

The Follow-Thru sight is made from lightweight aluminum-alloy and anodized with a black coating.  It is mounted to either side of your riser using the same AMO screw from your existing sight.   Notice I said either side of your riser, depending on two circumstances.  The first being the thickness of your riser and the second being the offset placement of your existing sight.  With today's lightweight bows there should be no problem mounting under your existing sight plate. 

When mounted the bow looks unique, as though it has sights extending from both sides of the riser.  Aiming is accomplished by placing the Follow-Thru pin (pictured) on the pin of the front sight. 

This gives the "rifle sight aiming affect" allowing two reference points that are away from your eyes.  It helps eliminate the errors that can occur, as a reference point gets closer to your eyes.  With a peep errors can occur if the pin isn't centered within the peep's circle.

The pin guard of the Follow-Thru also acts as a string stop.  This will allow your arrow to leave the string at the same point independent of your anchor point, nock type or release you use.  The stop also will aid in suppressing string vibration and doesn't seem to affect arrow speed.  The only minor issue I discovered was a slight string slap upon release. 

The reference pin also enabled me to extend the yardage of the pins on my front sight.  The twenty-yard pin was more effective from a range of 8 to about 28 yards by placing the reference pin above and below it.  This will aid in eliminating the number of pins needed on a multiple pin sight as well as confusion as to which pin to use. 

I have been shooting compound bows for over twenty years and most of those have been with an open hand.  The Follow-Thru recommends your grip the bow firmly enabling you to aim (follow through) after the arrow is released.  I guess old habits are hard to break cause I usually found myself reverting back while testing.  It didn't seem to have any effect on the accuracy, though, using either method was equally accurate.  The firm grip did aid in the follow through.  I believe this also could aid a new archer in not dropping their bow arm after release.  One word of caution, I do not recommend shooting at the same dot on a target.  Easton ACC arrows could get expensive and nocks take a beating.

Features 4 of 5
The sight did what it is intended.  I especially like the ability to extend the shooting range of one pin by placing the reference pin above or below your front sight.  In quick shots this could alleviate sighting with the wrong pin.

Design 3.5 of 5
The Follow-Thru is simple to install on today's bows but may need modifications on older bows with wider risers.  The only minor problem I detected was the noise from the string slap against the string stop.

Reliability/Toughness 4 of 5
You should have no problems with the settings of the sight.  Once installed the Follow-Thru seemed to be rock solid after many tests from a 73-pound compound.
