How To Sight In a Bow | Archery Basics Explained

I'm teaching my daughter to shoot. She loves it. Thanks for making these videos so I can remember how to do all those things I learned when I was her age!

Very thankful for this helpful Video. I'm new to archery. I shoot a little bit over 50 arrows in my whole life. I watched many videos from your channel before i even started to shoot. I saw many Bows and many equipments. I learned alot from you. Thank you.

Hi Jake. I love this new series creating for archery starters 👍 I would like to give archery a try, but I don’t know my draw weight. Do you know a way to figure that out?

If you're unsure which direction to turn the sight to get it to move in the right direction, watch the ruler/scale to see if it's moving the right way. Ditto with windage, watching whether the sight is moving in or out from the windage unit. To get a good estimate for how far to move the sight, reach out with your arm and point your index finger towards the center of the target, while you point your thumb to where the arrows are grouping (or vice versa) and note the distance between the fingers. Move your sight that much. (Old school - Hosford sight correction technique.)

Cool video. But to be honest in my case I don't use the sight. My teacher told me that I would be good at bare bow. But it is frustrating. I don't know why but for me it is difficult to use it. I remeber that the first time i used that sight all the arrows went over the target then after i fixed I wasn't able to use the red dot so i decided to use the screw. A few days later i decided to remove the sight. And started to shoot without it. I was able to pop ballons at a distance of 15 meters.

So I'm guessing one your stance, two how u grap the bow and three your sight pin should all should be right but as check list start from stance downward

Hi Jake, like you I currently have the sight mounted to the riser at the furthest position. At 50 yds the sight block is pretty close to the bottom and it's impossible for me to move it any further down when shooting beyond 50 yds so that when I aim at gold, arrow lands in gold. Can you discuss how you would adjust your sight in those situations? Is it a matter of mounting the sight closer to the riser and by how much should one do it by?

Hey man, wondering if you could recommend a decent brand/durable/budget Sight for mainly Hunting for my Take Down Recurve ?

[@lily3143]

Should i focus on the target while aiming or should i focus on the sight?

[@JakeKaminskiArchery]

Focus on the target. Thanks for the super thanks!

Chase the arrow.
