    Im shoot a HHA single pin sight and for some reason i think that the level is off. When im at full draw the bubble on the level is always to the right of where it is suppose to be. And when i try to correct it seems like im tilting my bow way to much. i seem to shooting pretty consistent when just not focusing on the level and just shooting, now my question is should i always to making sure that im level or just shoot? And if anybody else has had this problem let me know.... thanks for the input, Isaac.

    Isaac, do you have a vice and levels? Or access to them?

    A bow vise would be best to have to perform the function... but the main thing you need is a long carpenter's level so you can put it alongside the bow at both limb pockets. Get it absolutely straight up and down, then check your sight's bubble with the level's bubble...

    I think i can do this, i don't have access to a vice but my dad is carpenter so i will have alot of access to levels and such. I will give it a try tomorrow and see what i come up with......thanks for the tip.
