When you slide the sight in,you will hit high.


This was a little trick I shared with Matt/Tn when he was shooting in Metroplois at the 103 yard buffalo.His sight bar would notslide down far enought to get 103 yards so I told him to move his barIN and then he was able to come up with a marker for the shot.

I can tell you this, I shoot one pin out to 30 yds. I hold just 2" high at 30 yds and hit bulls eye. I also shoot 290 fps , not exactly a speed demon..

Exactly, why I was asking as I already knew the outcome had he wanted that information.

As I slide the bar back, it lowers the pin and would cause me to hold higher. Pin gap would also deminish the closer I got the pins to the riser.

If I was sighted in with the bar very close to the riser and slid it out I would hit very low and pin gap would increase. If I had a 20 yard sight bar the pins would be gapped exactly the difference that my arrows hit from 20 to 30 using the 20 at 30.

I did it 2 days ago checking my 4rth axis.[8D]

Was there something about faster speeds that differs from what we have said? I am only shooting 242fps so I am no where near a speed setup.

Almost half a mile, VA[8D]

After wing night won't do much good. You're gonna need to hit the target for it to mean anything.

You know I'm gonna try it....lol.

Don't know what'll happen, either. Just interested. Make sure to use your target arrows. The thread's about speed bows.....and I want the full effect!
