different sights for different setups??

Postby Mike_Parson » 04 29, 2016 •  [Post 1]

I was just wondering, how efficient it would be to have multiple sights set up on the same bow for different setups. like, i have a Trophy ridge 7 pin for my current setup. the arrows are coming in at 380 or so and they are lightning fast, but a little tight for an elk arrow. Would it be efficient of me to get a second bow sight and set it up for my heavier arrows and then just attach the sight that fits with the arrows i am going to be hunting with. The reason for this is i do hunt antelope and Mulies in the sand hills of NM and i need a fast flat shooting arrow that i can shoot at a bit further distance than the heavier arrows. if i had a second sight set up for elk, then i could just swap out the sights and off i go to hunt and i dont have spend a few days or a week re-sighting in the same sight. Just wondering what yall's thoughts are on this.

Lot of guys do that. 1 setup for 3d or target and one for hunting. Its pretty common.

I would think that is easily doable. I would think that a couple shoots after the switch would be all it takes to verify nothing has moved and you should be good to go. That would sure be cheaper than having a second bow,,,but there is always something to be said about getting another toy!!! :lol:
