    had a true glow pendulum sight put on my bow. was sighted in for 20 yards. went to my house and shot down into my basement (down the steps) expecting the bow to be right on. Instead, i am shooting consistently low at least 6 inches. Distance (horizontal) is about 6 yards. should i re sight the bow at 20 yards again? please advise. also, sorry about all the typos. in a hurry. kpost

    It might be that you were not high enough. I shot a Keller pendulum for more than 20 years and as I recall you had to be at least 12-14ft up for it to be accurate. That thing was dead-on out to about 35yds and I loved it.

    Low is Good, Just as not to Low?
