    20 Yard Pin Is On, But 30 Is Way Right

    Ok, I put a new sight on my bow, and so far I'm having a hard time with it. Is it possible that I'm just having some tuning issues, or can this be the sight causing the problem? My 20 yard is shooting bullet holes, but my 30 yard pin is shooting 6 inches to the right.

    I s your 30 yd pin longer than your 20 yd pin?
    If not, are you canting your bow?

      Make sure your bow is back to spec as regards to Axle to alxle, Brace height, etc.. etc.. Then shoot the bow 50-100 times to get the string settled.. Then read up on walk back tuning and that shouold fix your problem.. Good Luck

        Sounds like a tuning issue to me.

          Pins are straight lined, and I'm not canting. I actually used that little bubble level for the very first time.

          The thing that's confusing, is the sight before was perfect up to 40 yards. I didn't change ANYTHING but the sight.

                Make sure you have enough lower backstop ans shoot your 20 pin at a spot from 50 yards. shoot 3 arrows

                If they group well shoot 3 with the 30 yd pin
                same with 40
                if the groups change then you will know where to start, could be form could be the pin could be the sight housing
                could be a bad tunin issue.....

                Also have someone watch your arrow flight. side side? up/down? wagging in circles?

                  Aha!-Seems your level may not be level, and in your attempt to use the level, you are canting your bow.

                      Would it be possible to put the other sight back on and see what that does?

                        If all things have remained the same ,I am going to go with shooting form. A failure to follow thru or griping the bow harder can cause you to shoot right. Don't be to quick to blame the sight.

                          Tuning issue if both pins are the same length.

                            This ^. A lot of hunting sights do not have an adjustment to level the sight to the bow.

                              Maybe the centershot, does it gradually get farther away the longer the shot.
                              Then again it could be bow torque or form issue's.
