Thanks for the info guys....i followed the horton tape we got with the crossbow. It instructed that you need to 0 in the thing at 20yrds. No problems there. From that it said at 30 yrds you move that dial up one click. 40yrds 2 clicks...Kinda weird how they say 2 clicks out to 40 but there are many more settings after 2 on that dial.....

I might look into gettin him a better scope for this thing. And yes you were all correct we were shooting off hand.
