Guest ChevyMan Posted September 11, 2006 Report Share Posted September 11, 2006 I am trying to get my bow sighted in. THis is the first time i have ever had to sight in a pin sight. My old bow had a pendulum sight on it. Right now i have a 3 pin sight. I got the 1st pin at 15yrds, i did not move the pin i just moved the whole sight to get it on. The 2nd pin i want at 25yrds. I shot it today and it looked preaty well at 25 with out haveing to move the pin. Is this normal when sighting in a multi pin sight or did i get lucky??

VTbowman Posted September 11, 2006 Report Share Posted September 11, 2006 Re: Sighting in??? Assuming you have good to great form and your 1st pin is 15 yards then yes its a fluke to have your 2nd pin dead nuts on at 25 yards but not unheard of.

OUTSIDER Posted September 12, 2006 Report Share Posted September 12, 2006 Re: Sighting in??? once you shoot your bow enuf you will be able to set your pins, after you get your first one set, without shooting a single arrow, and be very close to the mark. The pin gap is almost always constant unless your bow shoots slow or you have a overly heavy arrow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LifeNRA Posted September 12, 2006 Report Share Posted September 12, 2006 Re: Sighting in??? My Trophy Ridge was easy to sight in. Started at 15 yards, got the bow sighted in really quick. When I went back to 25 yards, I only had to move it a little bit. But I did the same thing you did as far as only moving the entire housing and keeping the top pin all the way up. That way as I move back, the lower pins seam to fall in place. The 35 yard pin I had to move the most. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
