Bowtech Allegiance ???
 
I have an 05 Allegiance with a black gold flashpoint sight. Before that i had on a cobra sidewinder. I have a trophy ridge dropzone guide series rest. And THE QUESTION IS... Both of the sights that i had on this bow are maxed out as far down as they can go. My rest was set up by the shop that i got it at and i have been able to sight it in, barely! I am shooting 295 fps with carbon express maxima arrows. I would like to get that closer to center if i could. I was wondering if any one else had this issue or has any suggestions?

I bought a Defender yesterday and i am having that same problem, I am going back to the archery shop as soon as it opens. I am shooting a toxonics top dog and i have tried a montana black gold both with the sameproblem.

I had it once and it was due to having my anchor and peep site to low. I fixed it by changing the peep site by raising it 1/2" and my anchor relaxed in nicely.

You can test this by coming to full draw with your eyes closed and anchor and keep your head straight and squared to your shoulders and when you open your eyes the peep should be plainly available looking righ through it.

grandviewer my peep does seem low and I had him tie it in so this very well might be the problem. (not to butt in on this thread) it gives me that ole warm fuzzy feeling to no someone else has experienced this, and its not just my bow, not wishing anyone else heartache.

I have an 05 Defender and I had the same problem when I bought it. I adjusted the rest, sight, changed the peep location and my anchor point. At the same time I realized that my draw length was too long so that was adjusted also. Now I shoot better than ever and have lots of adjustment on my sight.

Had a simular issue with my sword site on mine. The sword site allowed me to flip the mounting head where the 3rd axis was adjusted upside down and this gave me a ton more adjustment. I don't know if anything like this is possible on your sights but you may want to look at it.
