    Hey guys,
    So I have an HHA kingpin sight and I am shooting 48 pounds with a 27.5 inch draw. My setup does not produce enough speed/energy to be in line with the range of tapes that come with the HHA sight. They don't have low poundage tapes for it either. Does anyone know of a program that has the kingpin as an option? If not, I'm thinking of making a hand made tape. A blank tape comes with it, and I was thinking of drawing lines every 5 or 10 yards and labeling them. I don't think this would be quite as accurate though. What route would you all recommend? Thanks.

    I used the white tape from a Dymo label maker and made my own, and marked 20, 30, 40, 50 on my Fast Eddie XL

    I drew in the lines for HHA
    too. As long as you sight it in correctly, it's just as accurate.

    male your own. It's prob more accurate. Shooting 48lbs you would only need a 20 and 30 yard mark anyway.
