Default Nah, the 82nd can't be Tuned and Shot...LOL

After shooting fairly well in the indoor 5 spot league, 300 with 53X's I took that Viper Predator Pro MT with 2 .019 pins and 2 .010 pins off and put on a new Viper Predator Pro MT with 4 .010 pins, green yellow, green yellow. I moved the old one over to another bow.

After shooting some arrows and resighting t he bow, these were my last shots at 20, 30, 40, and 50 yards as I tired.

Here's 20 yards,



Here's 30 yards,



And here's 40 yards,



And then 50 yards.

Wow Rob! How did you ever get such a low brace height, miserable draw cycle, impossible to tune bow to shoot like that?! You must be a master bow tuner . Or maybe it could just be a heck of a bow in the hands of someone who knows how to shoot. Nice shooting and I am glad to hear how much you like that bow. I am still waiting for the rest of my Octane accessories to arrive.

How close are your pins stacked together ?

I have the sword twilight hunter with .10 pins alternating green and blue on my 101st -they are all stacked pretty close together 20-40 - I hadn't shot 50 yet with mine

But that is some great shooting -

Frank, here is the old Viper sight, you can get an idea of gap. Even at 330 fps, there is still a gap as I have my sight bar all the way out to optimize accuracy.

Thanks for the pic ,Rob I like how yours are spaced

Would moving my sight bar out farther help my 20 and 30 yard gap - there is a small gap now but it makes it difficult to put the 30 yard pin on a small target - 40 drops down a little further soI am good there-

Extending a sight will gap pins a little more
