Default Using peep sight, need help?

I have always used a kisser button and recently bought a new bow with a peep sight. I am having trouble staying consistent. When I look through the peep the peep hole is smaller then the sights circle and its moving around and I am not even close to having a good anchor point. Any suggestions?

Give it a little time, you've changed styles and it will take some getting used to. If it just doesn't work for you, put the kisser back on. Line up the peep w/ the sight ring as good as possible, and try to do it the same every time.

They make different size peeps, too.....so you could always change it out. I've gone through several on my setups.....to find the perfect "fit".

Also....if you've changed ATA....your peep "may" be further from your eye (or closer - depending on whether you went shorter or longer on your ATA - due to the string angle). That gives you a totally different visual.

Good luck.

Sounds like you may have to move the peep. You want to set it up where your anchor points remain the same when using the peep.
I just had a new string installed and the peep is way off, throwing off my anchors, and having the same problem. No doubt I have to move it
