Just curious. I have a HHA DS-XL5519 on a Mathews No Cam 70lbs with 27" DL. The tape that matches my setup was 35. I just randomly walked back from the target stopped, ranged it, adjusted dial and shot. Unless I goofed the shot it was on. I love it when things work out the way they are supposed to. Any one else have a similar setup or using tape 35? A question I do have also si I thought the Mylar tape was to cover the whole tape to water proof it but it only covered the start and end. Do I need to be concerned with water proofing the tape?
I don't think you have to worry about it being water proof. The coating on the sight tapes protects them. I have had the DS-5519 on my Z7 Magnum for going on 4 years. The mylar is still in place and the sight tape is fine.
On my DS-5519 I was somewhere in the mid 30's as well. Maybe 37? I just put together a new set of arrows for turkey hunting so I'll be sighting my King Pin in next week. I love the interchangeable wheels since I can simply take off the one I have now and sight a new one in. When I'm done shooting at birds I can put the old wheel back on and my whitetail setup is in tact.
My sight housing touches the arrow when I move the dial all the way to the bottom. My 20 yrd pin is at #59. Sounds like a high number for 20 yrds. Any advice will be appreciated.
Shrek, What did you do to set the sight up? I basically run the sight as high as I could and set my 20 after I had broadhead tuned the bow. Then put on the setup tape. Shot a group at 20 and shot a group at 60 then subtracted the two to get the number of tape to use. I also marked the setup tape to make sure the yardages were right when I put the tape on.
