Help with sights
 
Saturday night i was out hunting with my diamond bow and a doe came up about 25 -30 yardsand i had my middle pin set exactly at 25 yards and i shot and i didn't even flinch or move at all and it fell 10-15 feet in front of the deer and i thought what the hell just happend.

So i got home and my sights got screwed up some how from the last time i was shooting ( i didn't even mess with them before)

so today i went out and i tried setting my sights back in.

and its a diamond bow set at 50 pounds with a pull length of 27 in.

so i'm trying to get my sights in and i can't seem to get them right now.

So could any one help my predict what i should have my middle pin at top pin and bottom pin.

My stand has a shooting range of 30 or so yards and i want to use my middle pin for 20-25

i want my bottom pin for about 26-30 yards and top pin at about 10-15.

What dash mark should i set it at? or whihc do you think?

For a 50# bow you are going to need a pin set for 10 - 20- and 30 yds.
Start out shooting at 10 if you are shooting low move the pindown just a little if you are shooting high move the pin up.Once you have 10 set move back to 20 and do the same....

Well you have to sight it in with them pins right. I can tell you that you pin should be 1.34532 in above the bottom of the sight can I?

WAXING IS DEFENITELY NEEDED!!!!

unless of course you want your bow string to snap at full draw and cut your face up and crack your limbs!
