    Levi Morgan's Tip on Sighting in a Bow! Easy!

    Many of you have probably tried this but for those who haven't here you go! I watched this video on Levi Morgan giving tips on how to sight in a bow and after trying it out all I can say is that this method has really helped a lot in getting my sight dead on! The picture with the "T" was at 20 yards. The Horizontal Line on the top was shot to adjust my "Up & Down" and the Vertical was to adjust my left and right. After I finished and had my arrows touching the lines, I shot the target at 20 yards which is the one with the single arrows (Didn't want to ruin them). The last Picture was a 3 shot group at 30 yards. I just got into archery a few months ago but have been practicing so I had a flier or 2 but that was all me! Overall I was impressed with the results and it sure helped a lot to get my sights perfect if not close! Here's the link to video for those who are interested.

    Nice group

    In class.. so I can't watch the video, but I'm assuming you are adjusting your rest in small increments?

      Great work! May have to try it out myself since I am also fairly new to archery as well.

          Watch it when you can its a good one! When you adjust it with this method move your sight not your rest. The rest and bow should be tuned correctly before moving the sight. Before even attempting this I made sure my bow was tuned properly at my archery shop.

                isn't this basically walk back tuning?

                  From what I've learned, I believe walk back tuning is when you try to line up arrows at various distances to see if your rest is centered. If the arrows are pretty much hitting vertical then your rest is pretty much centered. This method also will help with that but its mostly just to sight in your pin or pins with the least amount of human error. While sighting in the vertical line, you can also tell you if your rest is centered just like in walk back tuning so both of these methods go hand in hand.

                        Watched it, seems like a good technique to fine tuning your sights

                          I have not watched the video yet. But I always use the distances below to sight in new sights.

                          7 yards = 20 yard pin
                          5 yards = 30 yard pin
                          4 yards = 40 yard pin.
