    Sight tape

    Bought me a Truglo range rover single pin slider to play with and see if I like a single pin sight.

    It did not come with tapes like some of the more expensive ones do (I know you get what you pay for) just a blank tape on the sight that you mark.

    Does anyone have a sight tape program or suggestions on where to get some tapes that will work for this sight?

    This close to season I may wait until after season to try it

    I use glow in dark arrow wraps. Just cut and stick...use fine pen/marker to mark yardage . Low light adjustment.... no problem

      I use those peel off blank address labels stickers. guess with all the different arrows speeds and weights they couldn't keep the price down. I use a label fine marker and a piece of clear packing tape, same one for the past 5 yrs.
      I have a truglo on each of my hunting bows. Love mine, both are sighted in with my arch1000 range finder, I call them "Dial a Death".

      Sighting in is easy, stand at 20 and move the pin till you are dead on, mark it, move back to 30 shoot same pin move the pin up 1/4 inch and see make fine adjustments then mark the tape, Once you get all the yardage pins tou want put a clear tape over and go hunting.

                        It would take a sheet or glow in the dark wraps. Since most of the sight scale programs assume you are printing on a 9x11 sheet of paper, it is scaled accordingly.

                        IMO your best and easiest method is get some neon yellow mailing labels, trim them to fit the slider scale, and use a small mechanical pencil for the marks, and do it yourself.

                              If you have a iPhone you can get a program called "Archers Mark". Put in the info it ask for and it will build a tape for you. Email to yourself and then print out. I use this on my 3d target rig. I like it.
