Default Upgrading my bow questions???

I recently purchased a new HHA Brushfire Sight and installed it myself. I haven't had a chance to sight it in because I've been busy moving into my new home. I just purchased a new Ripcord dropaway rest to replace my two prong stock rest on my Hoyt. I also plan to go to the shop and get a new string put on with a Tru Peep put on to get rid of the peep cord. My question is should I sight in my bow with my new sight, then change the rest and sight it in and finally change my string and sight it in? I figured it might be easier to tune my bow this way or does it even matter and I can just change everything all at once? Thanks for your help guys.

1. I'd set my center shot on my rest.
2. Set peep.
2.Setsight.

That's what I'd do.

Like GMMAT says, but i'd do it all at once, why sight, resight and resight?

Make all the changes you are going to make and then start tuning your bow and sighting in. If you are changing your strings and harness you are going need to get 100 shots on it or so anyways before you will be able to complete the tuning process.

Thanks guys. I know that when you get your new bow you usually have to sight in everything all at once. I didn't know if that was a better method or not.
