    Hey guys, I have a question about both sight pins and draw weight on my compound bow. I adjusted my bow sights properly a few months ago, and it has been shooting great, right on target. About a month or two afterwards, I went to shoot one day, and I shot high at every yardage point, whereas the day before I was right on target. I saw after shooting for a while that it wasen't me or anything, so I adjusted my sight pins, and it was dead on. I thought something must have happened and I just wasen't gonna worry about it. This was fine until yesterday, when I had the same problem, and fixed it with the same solution. My question is, does this happen to certain sight pins, meaning there is a problem? Another thing i've thought about is maybe the draw weight on my bow is decreasing from shooting everyday, causing me to have to reset my pins because I am shooting high with less draw weight. What do you guys think? Thanks.

    My bet would be that your peep is moving, I've been having the same problem as of late and i believe this was my solution.

    Ive thought about it, but I dont know if it is...I can move the peep with my hand, but then again i've never tried to before so I don't know if that means its moving or anything. It is really frustrating me. If it is loose, how do I secure it?(I didn't install my peep sight)
