    Bow sight

    Bought a bow tech bow from a friend of mine. Really nice bow. Took it to bass pro had the sight moved to fit me and got arrows cut. Try to sight it in and shoots about five inches left and sight won't adjust to move it over anymore. Why is this happening?

    Could be several things, but with out seeing the bow it is difficult to determine.

    1) When it was being fitted at BP it is possible that the "tech" bumped the rest.

    2) the bow's draw length is too long or too short

    3) hand torque, the Bowtech's d0 sport a more narrow riser compared to other brands

    4) a tuning issue?

    I hope this helps, but a REAL archery tech could look at your bow and tell you. In my opinion....stay away from the box stores. They cycle employees through each department...meaning that the guy selling clothing on Thursday, fishing rods on Friday and then is dropped in archery on the weekends. Here is the closest archery shop to you.

          My wife's bow was doing the same thing except to the right and it was hand torque. We took it to the bow shop and he had her shoot and could tell she was torquing the bow. He changed her form a little and she's dead on now.

            Most being true,BUT I have to disagree with the box store so called techs..My wife works at Bass Pro in Grapevine and they have 2 very good techs back there,one I know went to Mathews school and thats what he shoots......Just get to know the tech thats gonna work on your bow and build trust in them..

                Going to "Mathews" school doesn't make you a good bow tech...
