HOW TO Calibrate Your Spot Hogg Sight Tape - Instructional

[@m.talmagemoorehead]

Great explanation of all the important details, including how to choose the right tape from among the 40 options provided. Your key phrase that helped me was "The whole purpose of the calibration scale (on the first piece of tape) is to find the distance (of your pins) between 20 and 60 yards so the scale can figure out the rate (or amount) of drop for your arrow at that distance." Thank you very much! Just hit the follow button.

Besr video BY FAR for this sight. Thank you so much!

[@derrekj98]

Oh thank God I found your video I was so lost I’m very new to archery and bought a bow used and it has a fast Eddie on it and I was so lost your video helped me so much

Dude! Great video. I’ve watched 10 videos on this sight and every one except you failed to properly show the sight. Thank you.

[@archerynorthwest]

appreciate it!

Thanks for the video, very helpful. I’m new to archery and have a question about the way you draw your bow. What is your reason for drawing the way you do (pulling more with the upper trap and bicep) ? I’m a biomechanics geek, and always curious about different techniques and learning the why . Thanks

[@archerynorthwest]

@@anton_yoga the archer in this video had a shoulder injury so he had to adapt his draw to be more across the chest to alleviate shoulder pain. Though you typically want to keep your elbow up higher and draw more with your shoulders and back ideally Thanks for watching!

Nice Instructional Video. Thank you. Towards the end of the video, as you were discussing final sighting in, I don't think you made any comments about which pin you are using for your "mover" to shoot at variable distances, such as 60 yards. You might also explain why an archer would want to use three pointers - one for each of the three pins. Minor nit / question - it appeared as if your tape cuts were, shall i say "sloppy" and the adhesion at the top of the tape appeared to be "incomplete". I would think this could result in poor adhesion especially in a situation such as a week + wilderness hunt with mixed weather conditions. So, the question is - did my eyes deceive me, or is it something that really isn't an issue?

[@archerynorthwest]

@@jimrice4699 thanks! With this one being a 3 pin sight, we use the top pin for the calibration process from 20 yards out to 60 yards and then once calibrated, you have the option of choosing any of the 3 pins as your mover. The nice thing about this sight having 3 indicators on the dial, gives you versatility to choose in that regard. And for the tape, yes it wasn’t fully seated and clean as well as one would like, this was just for demonstration purposes but when setting your own tape, you want to get it as clean and properly mounted as possible

[@adammarston1891]

So ........with the Boonie You can have more dials for different arrow weights ❤ Hunting 3D

[@archerynorthwest]

@@adammarston1891 exactly! One of the best features of this new sight!

[@archerynorthwest]

@@adammarston1891 yes you can. We sell the extra dials for that purpose. Pretty cool stuff!

[@stevefletcher2648]

Why are people turning it back to 20 before putting yard indicator on, when it say in the instructions to leave the indicator where it was at 60 and then put the 60 yard line on the indicator

[@archerynorthwest]

​@@stevefletcher2648 It is mostly personal preference. Both ways are considered correct. Most archers go back to 20 yards and recheck everything after the sight tape is installed.

[@Publiclandslayer23]

So when u sight 20 in and u do 30,40,50 and ur arrow is shifting right or left do you mess with windage knob while 20 is set?

[@Rec_hunt_fish]

best way to check if ur windage is good is to use black tape about 2" wide about foot long and run 1/2" wide white tape down the middle of it , put it on ur target and try shooting the white tape at 30 yards but make sure you do it when there is virtually no wind,, should get it sorted oh and you will know if its you or the sights coz you will know if your making good shots or not easier with something like that to aim at rather than a round dot, takes a bit of practice

[@archerynorthwest]

@@Publiclandslayer23 yes, your windage adjustments won’t affect your calibration for your sight tape, that is only affecting elevation. But if your windage is off at further distances, it could be a tuning issue with the bow

[@Publiclandslayer23]

I’m new to the bow world and I tried to sight in my hogg father and 20 is dialed in but every time I moved back and I turned dial to go further out I found my arrows also shifting right or left

[@archerynorthwest]

@@Publiclandslayer23 that could one of a few things, it could be a tuning issue with your bow or the center shot on your rest could be off, or you might be inducing wrist torque that changes with each shot. Try going into a local pro shop and shooting your bow through a paper tuning rack to see if your arrow is kicking out on you. If it is inconsistent, then it is a wrist torque issue, if it is consistently kicking the same way, it is a bow tuning issue. Hope this helps!

[@timmykellz2931]

And what ring are you running on the housing and what size peep are you running

[@archerynorthwest]

@@timmykellz2931 just the standard large ring that comes stock on the sight out of the package and a 3/16 inch RAD peep

[@mikebaker2840]

Good explanation but why is it when I watch guys shoot they have horrible form, that draw is terrible dude fix your form

[@archerynorthwest]

@@mikebaker2840 thanks for watching! The archer in this video had a shoulder injury so he had to adapt his form to mitigate the injury.
