    Anyone know the lowest speed for which there will still be a sight tape available? I know the sight only comes with 15 tapes or metal plates, compared to where an HHA comes with 52. Thanks

    I have never seen one of those tapes not work. It's not all about the speed, but sight length as well. 280-290fps puts you in the middle tapes

    So sight length meaning how far the housing is from the front of your riser? So what would it mean if I had a dovetail and it was in the farthest position?

    The further out the sight is, the closer together the marks are if I remember correctly

    exactly, with a slower bow you could just bump the sight out a bit to use a tighter tape.

    My Prodigy was shooting 285fps and used the #8 tape. I'm guessing anything north of 250fps will work. You can make your own tape too if you download OnTarget2 or something similar and have access to a printer at home.

    Opposite, Matt. Closer to the riser brings your sight marks closer. The farther it is the more spread out they will be
