Tune Up?

[primos]

Ok I need some suggestions on my bow. I went out to shoot it the other day and I am totally out of adjustment on my sight. I am shooting low so i moved my sight all the way down and my pins all the way down and still am shooting low. Any ideas of what is wronge? Any help would be much apreicated.

First thing I would look at is your peep hieght. Move it up and your sight should move up.

What type of rest are you shooting, if it's a fall away,is it getting pulled up all the way, did your nock point slip?

Did you purchase your bow at a local bow shop, those guys will typically help you out without any charge or at least minimal.

If your looking to do it yourself, I would recommend that you start from scratch as if you just purchased a new bow. If you are not familiar with the proper steps just type in archery + Bow tuning and you will find several web sites with good info.

Sounds like a stretched string and a changed nocking point. Sounds like you need to make a trip back to the bow shop to put you bow back in spec.

Kevin,

great advice already given, take it to a pro shop and have them tune it up, if you haven't replaced your stings and cables within the past year or so, it probally should be done.

Everybody already covered what I would have checked. Either the nock or the rest. When my string starts to wear the nocks move up since I use a release under the nock vs. a loop.

Nock point is set too high or rest is set to low. Look at your arrow from the side does it look like it is ramping or pointing down. If it dosent it could be your peep is set incorrectly.
