Help with React sight

[BowTech2010]

I tried the react sight but had the same problem as you. Bow was too fast. Went to MBG 1 pin. Best sight and decision made.

Said the same thing, but if you must stick to those light weight arrows, try moving the sight closer to your eyeball.

I had the opposite problem with my react sight. My arrows are almost too heavy for my Assassin and my react is just about maxed out, had to move the sight as far away as possible (your current setting).

Move the sight closer and you will have bigger gaps in the pins.

I am shooting the 350 Carbon Express Maxima Reds with my Mathews Chill R and 5 pin React sight and there is no problem at any distance other than my user error. Not sure how others say their bow is too fast for this sight. Mine is cranked all the way up to 70 lbs with a 29.5 draw and is pretty dang fast; IBO 342 fps to be specific granted with a hunting arrow it's not going to be that fast.

I know my bow is fast but I knew it wasn't so fast that the 20 and 40 yard pin were so close together they were almost the same.

I flipped the mount back around and moved it closer. I'm going to sight it back in at 20 and see what she will do out further this go around.

I know that people are shooting the sight with bows slower and faster than mine. With that said I just have to dial it in and get it set right.

Thanks again for everyone's help.

Thanks again for all the help guys. Got it where it needs to be. I kept the bracket upright and moved the sight back closer to the bow. Problem solved. I shot it a little bit today but it's too cold and windy outside.

Both shots were only at 30 yards. When it warms up a bit and the wind dies down I'm going to see how she is at 40, 50, and 60.

You might find you need to adjust still at 40 and 50, but you will be that much more money at 30. I do find that I am spot on at 20, 30, and most of the time at 40, but when I shoot 50, any flaw in my form, and I am way low.

Love the react sight, it's so easy to adjust. And I believe it improved my shooting over a traditional 5 pin sight.
