Default Peep Goes Up Sight Must Go Down?

I know with an arrow you chase it with the sight to zero it. But my question is if i decide to raise up my peep sight does that mean i have to raise or lower my sight and pins.

You will have to raise your sight up. Your pin spacing should remain the same if you make a small adjustment in your peep.

Only problem is my G5 is almost maxed. What then is there something I can do to bring the sight up more for some reason it seems to be lower than most sights..I had no problem with a tru-glo or a trophy ridge is there something else that might work. I checked my anchor and everything seems pretty good Its just not giving me that natural feeling when at full draw.

I have seen commercially-available adapter brackets which raise the sight mounting per se. Just don't ask me who makes them or where I saw them, because I can't recall. But envision a somewhat stout piece of aluminum which bolts to the riser in the normal placement location of a sight mount, and at 1" or so above those mounting screw locations there is a second set, where the sight now attaches. Hope that makes sense!
