Crud!!!! - Now What???

[txfour]

Ok, was super excited, I paper tuned my bow and got ready to sight it back in. Now I have a whole new problem. I am out of adjustment. I need to move the sight right, but if I move it any more right, it will come completely off the bow. So now what? How do I fix this?

Here are my current groups. I don't think I am torquing at all.

sounds like something isnt right if you are running out of adjustment....however, a quick fix is to put a washer or spacer between the mount and riser

I don't think it's tuned....you just found a grouping point....sounds like your rest is out of whack or you've got some left/right action going on...maybe some interference problems

I am open to your thoughts. It is shooting perfect bullet wholes on paper at 7 feet. What else can I look for?

it could be many things...you could have rest interference or out of alignment, too weakly spined arrows, several things...

[blacksunshine]

ah...it's left handed....that's the problem....

Can you have a good paper tune with those issues?

if you line up the string, center of rest, center of sight and center of riser shelf, do they line up together and does it look parallel to the riser or at a different angle than the riser?

I paper tune at 3, 5, 7, 10 and 12'. Perfect holes at one distance don't always mean perfect holes at other distances. I'd try at several distances between 3 and 15'. See if its still "tuned". Might shed some light on things.

im pretty sure the rest needs to go left. those hostage rest when i have used them hid behind the riser a bit when tuned

I had a similar issue with mine. Found that my sight had both a micro adjust a a main adjust. My problem was that I was only adjusting the micro. Once I found the main adjustment bolt I was able to solve my problem. Can you by chance post a pic of your sight from the front?
