    The key is the "follow your arrow". If you are missing high move that pin up. If you are missing left, move that pin left. Its as simple as that. Hope this helps.

    Very easy to do with the amount of information and opinions out there. Learn up on that tuning guide and remember to follow your arrow.
    Once you get into it, it's really not that hard.

    sighting in.

    Just getting a new bow, this has been killer. I think it might be a right of passage to successfully sight your own bow in. My biggest problem is my sight getting bumped every time I set my bow down. One tip I found is establishing your anchor point.

    You've got to draw to the same point every time and aim the same way, one eye or two eye. Consistency. The whole ordeal is definitely making me a better archer.

    Good luck!!!
