slightly to the left at 60 yrds

Mr October · 08-14-2007, 08:05 AM

I am shooting a new HHA single pin (Love It). I am right on as I get out toward 50-60 yrds I notice I am just off to the left. Is this correctable or do I have to compensate when I am out to 50-60 yrds

Thank you

Either your arrow rest is off just a wee bit to the left or you need to do a 3rd axis leveling on the sight.

Or you're shooting in a right-to-left breeze and not allowing for wind drift.

1. Get the bow in a vise and put a level on the string so that you can tell when it is straight up and down, then check the scope to see that the levels match.

If the levels are true to each other:
2. Move the rest very slightly to the right until the 60 yd group is on target then go back and check the closer distances.

Thanks for the help I did notice on the drop away rest that there was alittle wear on the left tongue of the rest mole skin. I wont have a chance to shoot till tomorrow so I will have to move the rest then.

The arrows are hitting to the left I would need to move the rest to the right?

Correct. But move it very small increments at a time. No more than 1/64" to 1/32".
