    I just had a new serving put on my bow . The problem is I'm shooting high and don't have any more sight to raise it up to get lower. The arrows seem to fly good any advice.

    Your nocking point is probably off.But if that isnt it you could try flipping your sight bracket over to get more adjustement.

    I would check nock point for sure! Make certain your nock is not pinching causing the tip of your arrow to raise slightly off the rest! IE: not having proper rest support threw out the shot! Also proper rest drop if using a drop away (timing) Just some thoughts

    Lower your peep sight a little. if your running out of upward adjustment on a modern sight and bow your anchor is way high.

    what kind of bow solo cam or binary? it will make a difference on starting knock point but it sounds like it is lower then it should be a shot or two through paper will tell you and you can lower your rest a little bit

    What bow? What rest? Most of my bows tune best 1/8-1/4" nock high. Unless it's my NoCam.
