    New sight came in today! MBG Flashpoint. I am relatively new to archery, so I have no idea how to install it. Is it something I can do at home? Or should I bring it down to the local bow-shop. Thanks all!

    So, are the pins already zeroed in? Or do I need to adjust them myself?

    You will need to sight it in after you get it installed.

    I like to start out at 20 yards with a long piece of electrical tape ran from top to bottom shoot a few arrows then adjust your right to left depending on where your group is. Group is right move sight to the right, group is left move sight to left. Just make small adjustments. Once you are hitting the tape you can adjust up and down, group is up move sight up, group is down move sight down, then fine tune your pins to whatever yardages you want them set to. I have three pins set to 20,30, and 40 yards, thats why i started at 20.Hope this helps.
