Archery Aiming tip using 1st axis

This makes it so much easier to get your bow to aim when you aren’t worried about your first axis in the initial aiming process! And yes, you can move your first axis wherever you want as long as your second is properly level.

You always have great advise and explain things in a way that makes sense. I have never heard or read that hak. Thank you

That makes a LOT of sense. At long range I often find myself holding really well but my bubble is off, then when I try to force the bubble level it doesn't hold as well. Now that I have the new Boonie sight that has 1st axis adjustment I will give this a try. AFTER my elk hunt in Colorado next week since I'm all dialed in for that.

Once you have moved bars etc. To make the aim good.. are u like relaxing your front hand to just allow the bow to sit how it wants to sit.. then adjust the bubble to match. I tryed this last night and felt off because I've never done it before. I normally have some byass in my bow. But then i wasn't sure how much i had into it because i was moving the bubble, etc.

Paige, can you define first axis? I believe I follow everything you’re saying here, but what you’re calling 1st axis I’ve always understood to be 2nd axis.

[@PaigePearceinsight]

@@HuckFTW 2nd axis is labeled on my sight (I shoot an Axcel) and that is when you level the bubble in the scope to the vertical bar that the scope moves up and down on. First axis is the tilt of that vertical bar where it attaches to the bar that is on your bow. I have a whole video on here about how to level your sight that shows all of that and goes through each step. You should watch that just so it’s 100% clear! :)

@@PaigePearceinsightperfect, that video cleared things right up. Thanks!

[@mikekage9895]

So what about 3rd axis?

[@PaigePearceinsight]

@@mikekage9895 3rd axis is important and should be level. I have a video on here called how to level your sight and if you need help leveling you should watch that. I do my 3rd axis always with a Hamskea at full draw so it takes my torque into consideration. If I leveled 3rd in a vice it wouldn’t be correct at all. But moving your third around won’t change how the bow aims or fighting the aim of your bow really. So that’s why it’s not mentioned in this video because that doesn’t have to do with the aiming part. But it is important and I cover it in the sight leveling video :)
