    I'm a newbie to bows and am trying set up the sights without breaking too many arrows. Do you move the sights opposite the direction you want to move the arrow on the target? I have three pins, what should they be st at. 10, 20 30? Thanks in advance.

    Some people love pendulum sights. Not me. I prefer my sight to be as solid as possible. But that is just me.

    Hmmm....I just went threw the 08-09 regs and didn't even find the deal on lighted sites. Maybe its not illegal anymore. It mentioned more that you cant use electronic tracking devices that use radio tele something. interesting.

    Just put a new cobra DM .19 5 pin on my Ross and it is fantastic. Unbelievably bright with small .19 pins. Clear pin guard. Would be hard to beat it for the price (archery experts). They have it in camo. Cabelas in black.
    Going to be a great season. Best luck to all. BBQGUY & BBQGAL

    I really just try to use two or one pins even though I put four on my sight. first =15 yards. second = 2" drop at 25 yards. Farther then that I just aim higher. My mind doesn't want to use the other pins for some reason. I'm a weirdo [xx(].

    Clay,

    I have used a Predator since '97 and love it. Once you get it tuned, it's a foolproof system IMHO.

    Make absolutely sure you take some elevated shots with it, and adjust the cam ratio.

    If you have questions shoot me an e-mail.
