Default 04 Mighty Mite with Spot Hogg problems

Well I finally got everything put together on the new bow but one problem. When sighting it in we moved the Spot Hogg all the to the left and I still need to go more. No more left adjustment. What do you guys recommend? It shoots great tight groups but still about
1 1/2" left. Thanks in advance.
Greg.

Sounds to me you need to check your center shot. Your rest is most likely out of center with your string.

I have never tinkered with a Spott Hogg sight but I have a feeling that Ausie is right on with his suggestion. However, you may also want to check the centershot as well. I believe Bowtech recommends a starting point of about 7/8ths of an inch from the inside edge of the sight window to the middle of the arrow.

I had to stop using one of my Toxonics sights as it did not have enough left adjustment but all of the have worked on the MM.

Hope this helps.

Okay remember I'm still learning hear. Do you mean mount the sight on the left side of the riser? If not please explain. As far as center shot, we used a laser and it was traveling right down the middle of the arrow and up the string.

I just bought an 04 Mighty Mite as well and the sight window is very large. I like this because with my other bows my scope style sight was always to far to the right to see the whole outside ring. I don't own a spott hogg so I can't help you there. I have a Viper predator sight which has a long enough left adjustment which I am lucky because this sight was expensive!!!

I think Ausie is referring to moving the pin guard to the left side of the extension bar. You may not be able to do this unless you have a Hogg It sight, which has the sliding extension bar mount. My Copper John sights have not been a problem in this regard.

Sorry for the confussion.

The pin guard is what I was refering to.

Usually they are on the right of the mounting bracket undo the 2 little screws that are holding the pin guard on then move the pin guard to the left side of the mounting bracket.

You should be able to do this with all the Spot Hogg sights not just the Hogg-It.

Xtreme

I dont have experiance with a spot hogg but i had this problem with a cobra sight and my sq2.

If the above suggestions will not work for you you may want to try putting a plastic shim in between where the sight ring and the bracket meet. You can drill the holes for the screws in the plastic. Not sure if this will work for the spot hog but it solved my problem

good luck

I had to do exactly what Ausie suggests when using a Hogg-it on my Liberty.
