Default RE: Pendulum sights or not

if you are in a tree stand bend at waist to line up with the target instead of lowering youre arm, bending at the waist youre anchor point is the same as if you were shooting at a target on a level plain.

Hunt, If a pendulum sight works for you, stay with it. A little tip when your in the treestand. If you draw your arrow straight in front of you, like you do on the ground, then bend at the waist your shot will be right on. Many hunters draw pointing the bow down at the target. This lowers your anchor point and you must raise the sight to compensate. Wala, a high shot over the target. No need for the pendulum in the stand or on the ground if you use this technique. Practice this then you can spend more money on hunting goodies that you would have used for a new pendulum sight.
i have just recently got my first bow and i have been shooting on the ground at a target. what do you mean by "bend at the wrist"? bend your wrist, up, down, or in..?
