When to Adjust Sight Pin vs. LR Updown on a Compound Bow at 20 Yards
Adjusting Sight Pin:
- Vertical adjustments: Make sight pin adjustments to fine-tune distance within a specific range (e.g., at 20 yards).
- Horizontal adjustments: Use the sight pin for minor left-right corrections within a short distance (e.g., <5 yards).
Adjusting LR Updown:
- Vertical adjustments: Not recommended for distance adjustments within a specific range (may cause arrow drop).
- Horizontal adjustments: Make LR updown adjustments for left-right corrections over a greater distance (e.g., >10 yards).
Specifics for 20 Yards with 30lb Bow:
- Sight Pin Adjustments: Small vertical adjustments may be necessary to fine-tune the distance.
- LR Updown Adjustments: Avoid using LR updown adjustments at this distance.
Additional Tips:
- Start with a lower draw weight (e.g., 30lb) to improve accuracy.
- Use a consistent anchor point to ensure consistent arrow flight.
- Take multiple practice shots before making adjustments.
- If adjustments are significant, recheck all other bow settings (e.g., arrow rest, nock set).
