    Default Sight is almost in the way of arrows?

    I dont know whats wrong but I had to lower my sight to get it too shoot . I meen I lowered the bracket from pin housing and still had too drop it down a bunch never had this problem before it shoots well at 20 yards Im stacking arrows . I havent shot longer due too weather . I have the arrows just slightly higher than center of berger holes . could my nock height be too high? Or is it just the way it is for me?

    Question

    Sounds like a form issue, probably your anchor point is high in your face ... Can you post a pic of yourself at normal shooting position?

    Anchoring high cause your peep is too low. Give yourself more distance from the nocking point to the peep.

    Not yet, home for lunch no one to take pics. I will tonight. Its weird to me I was shooting 20 yards indoor yesterday after I set the sight like that and was shooting all x's with a hunting sight slapping arrows even tore a fletch and this is in the first 50 arrows I put thru the bow. I should leave it alone but I know it isnt right.

    I had them install a new peep I anchor with the tip of my nose to string .I close my eyes when I draw anchored then open my eyes to set peep location feels good nothing different than I've done for years bow draw length Is a 1/2 inch shorter than I'm used too (Mod on order) but Ive shot other bows at 29 inches. I have a little longer loop to help.

    Its really hard to see your pic, but it looks like you arrow is too high in the berger holes.

    I had a similar issue with my Hunter and a Spott Hogg sight couldn't get enough veritcle travel. Bought a drop mount and couldn't get enough travel to the right after installing the drop mount. Traded the Hogg for an HHA single pin and problem was solved.

    Yea, it looks like the bottom of your arrow is flush with the top of the berger holes. Kinda hard to tell though. Is that right? It should be close to dead center thru the berger holes.
