Default RE: bow riser blocking site window...normal?

ORIGINAL: Rob/PA Bowyer

I'd love to see a photo or video of you at full draw. When this happens I normally see the anchor point too high. Meaning your nock is too low when your at full draw causing you to launch your arrow upward too much thusly having to raise the sights.

Bring your nock/arrow/kisser or whatever you use up toward your mouth more depending and it'll lower your point of impact plus lower your sights.

OR, lower your peep, it'll raise your nock point, lowering your bow, opening your sight window of the riser.
Rob,
Verically there is no problem, just horizontally the right side of the site window is blocked by the riser. The bow is tuned, so the left/right adjustment of the rest should becorrect, as well as the nock point. My achor point is the right side tip ofmy nose on the left side of the bow string, pretty standard anchor point.

Maybe the only solution is to get a different bow where the riser is curved further outward to prevent blocking the site window?
