yea you can do that, the frame of the sight doesnt have any room either?

I would not move the peep just to change point of impact. The peep needs to be aligned with the shooters eye with his head in proper position. So, is the housing up as far as it will go, and the pin is high as it will go in the housing? I guess the peep could be to low and he's having to hold his head down to see through it?

its an older hoyt rebel xt. when i move the sight all the way up its above the riser cutout and he cant see the top pin. im stumped

[jerp]

Are there more than one set of holes on the riser so you can mount the sight lower?

Have him Draw and Anchor with his eyes closed. When he is settled, have him open his eyes. He should be looking dead center of the peep. If not then it needs to move.

have him move his anchor point lower on his face, closer to his jaw. My guess without seeing a picture, he is trying to have the end of the arrow nearly directly under his eye, or turning his head nearly sideways to see through the peep. Pics from the side would make it easier to suggest a solution!

Could rest need adjustment? Is arrow centering on berger hole, if so is nocking point on
string level or thereabouts? These could cause high hits and need to be right before sighting in. D
