    Hi guys, I recently got a new mathews zxt as a present. I took it to a bow shop and had them set my rest d loop and sight on. Once I started to sight it in i realized it is shooting high. I have maxed out my sight. Raised my anchor point and it's still about 2" high. I was wondering if anyone has any suggestions. Maybe the move the rest down? I don't have a peep on it. Thank you for any advice.

    Well if you are shooting high you need to move your pins up. Based on your anchor point you might have to take the sight off and move the sight up to the next mounting hole.

    set arrow level in rest with berger hole. center rest to spec. adjust height of impact bareshaft and fletched together with your D-Loop. this is after your for sure that bow is in spec' ATA, timing, etc..... if ya have adjustable yoke's after you got height right. Yoke tune bareshaft/fletched arrow's left/right. so they impact same. then check broadhead/Fieldpoint's should be very close at this point ya can fine tune broadhead/FP together with yoke's or barely move rest for your left and right. height adjusted by nock point/ D-loop. adjust up/down or left/right 1 at a time not same time. if your form is solid you will have no problem :)

    I have this same bow and mine was shooting high when first got it too. On the sight I have you can flip the bracket over to get more movement if the sight is maxed out. That would be the simplest fix if your able to turn the peice the sight housing attaches to to get more adjustment.

    Thano you for the suggestions, I forgot to mention I have a G5 optix sight. I'll have to look when I get home to see if it can be flipped.
