I'm at a loss.
I did what everyone told me,I'm using my top sight for the shortest range shots,and lowest sight for longest range,
I'm hitting at or near the bulls eye at ten yards,However!,My 20 yard sight had to be moved way up,And in order to get it hitting anywhere near the bulls eye,I had to move it up above the 10 yard sight. Does that make any sense? Oh and the 30 yard sight is still way too low,It will be just below the 10 yard sight next time I adjust it.What's going on?Do I have some kind of backwards sight or something?[&o] |
RE: I'm at a loss.
you are doing something totally wrong here. i would go to easton archery's website and download the tuning guide and it will give you step by step instructions.

RE: I'm at a loss.
Just curious but are you anchoring the same all the time.If you anchor at the corner of your mouth then the next shot at the jaw bone it will make a big difference where the arrow will land.
|
RE: I'm at a loss.
No. Nothing wrong with your sight. That's just how your anchor and setup has the trajectory going. Forget the 10 yard pin. You do not need it and it's just confusing you in the bargain. Set the 20 as your shortest distance, then learn where to hold the 20 pin to hit the closer distances.

RE: I'm at a loss.
Set the 20 as your shortest distance, then learn where to hold the 20 pin to hit the closer distances. My first pin is 20, then 30, 40, 50. When I do my form shooting at 5-8 feet from the target, I use my 50 yards pin. |
RE: I'm at a loss.
Thanks.
I will get this thing set right,I'm like a pitbull with a bone,I won't stop untill it's done.lol. I may have to work day and night,But I'll get it right.lol. |
RE: I'm at a loss.
You also might want to check you nock and make sure it did not slide on the string. Also make sure you serving is tight.
|
RE: I'm at a loss.Well.
My 30 yard sight is almost dead on now,And my 40 yard pin needs just a bit more tweeking,so I guess I'll set the last one at 50 yards.

RE: I'm at a loss.Well.
Wic have you paper tuned your bow?? If your arrow is hitting the rest or shelf or something, it could account for your erricate pins. Put some lip stick on the rest and then shoot the arrow. If you have lipstick on the fletchings than you have contact which you don't really want..
|
RE: I'm at a loss.Well.
I expect a bit of contact,I'm using this round rest,I think it's called a whisker bisquet.lol,If they only knew what that meant in southern terms.lol.
But I can't use the other rest,They just don't feel right to me. |
RE: I'm at a loss.Well.
Some shooters, even very skilled shooters, do not buy into the rest-tension aspect of tuning. From personal experiences, I wholeheartedly do.
Considering that you might have a marginal spine issue that can sometimes be corrected with adjusting the tension of your rest, but that you cannot control the tension on bristles, you might try lowering your nock height to the degree that it (nock height) puts your arrow on a more horizontal plane to relieve some down pressure that may be occurring when you shoot. If your shaft is pushing down as you shoot, contact with the rest may be occurring. If the contact is at the top of the nock end, it could cause your shaft to nose up and send your arrows higher than your POA. |
RE: I'm at a loss.Well.
Set the arrow on the rest and get it lined up with your rest mounting hole--the arrow should be square with the string(90 degrees).This is a good starting point then make very small adjustments as needed.Half the fun of shooting a bow is all the tinkering.
