Seems like a terribly idea. Why he no sharpen?

Intredasting, I'll probably be passing that direction at some point this week. I'll go check it.

Thanks

Doesn't think its very important I guess.

If I can't shave with it I'm not hunting with it.

I don't even understand how to use one, but I've never seen one IRL

You set it to where it looks like that at full draw. If you torque at all, or draw back to a different point, you will not see the dot inside the circle. Mine has nothing to do with the sight.

Do you mount it right under the sight?

Makes sense. This would actually probably help me, I have a torquing problem

Mine is. My d loop spins on the string, peep gets cocked on draw, groups are shite. It's happened twice. First time I brought it back to cabelas, they said first guy was an idiot, retied in peep, put new d loop and tied it tighter. This time I just twisted back myself til it was right. Still annoying as frick, my old bow never had that problem.

A peep on a new string is a PITA.

What should I be doing differently?

Bring it to get retied every time it twists until it quits doing it?

Either get rid of it and get a alxtgr rig or twist chase it with your string loop until it lines out.

I always twist the loop.

Eta: or you could get a peep with the rubber tube on it but I hate those c

It will take a couple of hundred shots before your string quits stretching/creeping.
