I went to the range this morning, I adjusted my sight accordingly and the first three arrows were stacked on top of each other. The only problem is that they were hitting to the left. I adjusted the sight all the way out to no avail. So I put the sight back where I started and adjusted the rest in. It got better but was still to the left. The groups were outstanding out to 50 yds. Three arrows almost in the same whole. I did have one flier that buried an inch into a 2x4 from 50 yds. and broke it getting it out but otherwise, I love the no-peep and my groups are tighter than before. I think I have figured out my problem though. I was drawing it at the house and looking at everything and I have some serious cam lean going on. I guess the new Winner's Choice string and harness is coming sooner than expected. I knew I needed a new string anyways but I was hoping to get a little longer out of it but I guess not.
I had very little fine tuning to do to the no-peep though. All I had to do was resight and it is not a lie when the website says it will show any problems with form or equipment. It sure does. LOL!!

Ok..here's the problem. The bracket for the no peep has moved your sight 1/8" to the right, away from the riser because of it's thickness. That causes you to have to adjust your sight to the left to make up the difference. If you run out of adjustment, you must then adjust the no peep to the right so that your eye moves to the right. You are anchoring too far from your eye, and face, and the no-peep adjustment will take care of that. I use the HHA adjustable, with the SP-50 bracket, and was able to offset the difference with the bracket rather than change my form. But you will have to change it up a bit with a standard sight. Hope this helps.

I shoot an adjustable just the rod wasn't long enough to move the sight over. I will tinker with it as soon as I can get back to the range. I want to try to get it done before next weekend because we are going to the lease to bush hog and I wanna stick a pig and be the first one to do so.

It's hard to adjust your anchor to compensate for a left strike and Spiker picked right up on the reason for some left strike but you say you adjusted all the way out. Thats typically alot of adjustment for where most peoples pins normally.
How much would you say that you moved it?

I can't find the Sniper single pin adjustable sight anywhere online, do you have a pic, or a link? As before, you will have to adjust the no peep to the right to compensate for the lack of adjustment on your sight. Read "how to sight" in the owners manual on page 2 under the heading: "TIP" www.timberline-archery.com/no-peep_manual.pdf

BT, I moved it about 1/2" to the left. I feel the cam lean is causing in to pull to the left. I am gonna try moving the no peep and moving my head to the string. There may have been a problem with grip also due to the fact I forgot my gloves and had extremely sweaty hands. I had a problem with my release sliding too. Spiker, here is a link for the sight. It is about halfway down the page. It's just a picture but a fairly good one of the aperture and rod. [a href=" www.frank-ross-outdoor-info.com/buyers_guides/bow_sight_bg.php"] www.frank-ross-outdoor-info.com/buyers_guides/bow_sight_bg.php[/a] Mine also has the level.

Thanks and Karma to you both. I went out today and reset sight and rest to original position and adjusted the no peep like you said Spiker. After 20 mins. this is my 50 yd. group: This was with a 10 mph. left to right crosswind. I am extremely happy with these results. I also was amazed at how steady I am now because of being able to see the no peep moving if I'm moving. I think this is one of the greatest archery inventions ever. I think any new archer should try one of these and it would greatly shorten the learning curve, even if they start out using a peep. I now understand why so many people like it and thanks again for all y'alls help and advice.

I'm really happy that your happy I have been pitching sales for this device for years and believe that the wound to kill ratio would be greatly improved if everyone had a no-peep.

I have some of my hunting buddies ordering the NO-PEEP for their bows. They seen it on my bows and like how it shows if your torqued or anchored wrong. It is a great product that is for sure.
