took a practice shot from my stand this weekend; missed high. I don't get much of a chance to practice from an elevated position, so......these pendulum sights, that are supposed to automatically correct for the angle, via the tilting of the whole sight unit - the concept seems sound - do they work in reality? If so, what brand is a good value?

Also, get a load of the "gobbler guillotine" - this is a new one on me - anyone used one with success? Anyone used one without success?

Thanks.

P.S. It was much too hot for deer hunting (92 deg high) - shoulda stayed at home. Sweat, mosquitoes, ticks, spider webs, deer smell me from a half mile away - bah.
