RE: Need Advice on Sighting
i think sometimes guys and gals at shops do the best they can with what they are given. i've realized by helping neighbors and lots of folks around here that until they can dot it at 30 yards i really can't help them fine tune their bows. we can get it close, but if they aren't shooting on a consistent basis, and consistantly, it just really isn't any use. correcting their form and grip, well, only a few are receptive to that. they feel like if they hit a bullseye a couple times they are doing it fine. why listen to someone trying to correct something that isn't broke. as you get more and more into shooting again you'll begin to figure out what you're doing wrong, if anything, and things will begin to bother you - like to much pressure on your bow thumb, or the bow squirting sideways at the shot. the difference between me and the shop down the road is i just flat out tell people we can't fine tune it until you can shoot better. they seem to appreciate that coming from a buddy, but it makes them mad if a shop owner tells them that - like the person is trying to get out of doing work or just doesn't care.
