Improving your Bowhunting with the Right Sight

Although a sight is not exactly required in bowhunting, using the right sight will undoubtedly improve the accuracy of your shots. Some experts even say that a quality sight can increase an archer's accuracy by up to 20%! Thus, the right sight can make a big difference in your success as a bowhunter.

A sight will serve as your reference point when bowhunting. The most basic sight only has one pin; this kind of sight is ideal for hunters that shoot at high speed and create flat trajectories. The downside to using just one pin is that, since the arrow tends to arc when shot, you may have to aim a little higher or lower, depending on how far you are from the target. This may take some practice before you get it right. Movable pin sights are available, allowing you to adjust the pin to the exact distance. However, this can be quite tricky when your target is moving.

A number of hunters recommend instead the use of multiple sight pins, as this tends to more accurate than the single pin variety. When using multiple pins, you can set the pins to different distances. For bowhunting purposes, most experts recommend that 3 pins will provide you with the necessary flexibility that you need. Set these pins at 40, 30 and 20 yards. Too many pins can confuse even the most expert hunter.

If you're planning to shoot from a tree stand instead of the ground, consider getting a pendulum-style sight. These kinds of sights adjust automatically and reliably for up to 30 yards. However, if you're planning to shoot only from the ground, fixed-pin sights are much easier to use.

The standard pins used in bowhunting are fiber optic pins; however, many hunters are choosing to use spooled fibers, as they are actually brighter than the fiber optics. It is important that you check that the fibers are completely protected upon coming into the sight pin. This makes sure that the fibers will not break easily.

The diameter of the pin is another consideration. Larger pins tend to be more visible. You can also mix and match pin sizes to specific distances. A good idea is to match short distances with fibers that have big diameters, and match longer distances with fibers that have smaller diameters.

Many hunters also prefer to use the round pin guards instead of the square ones. Using the round pin guards, you will be able to accurately position the guard at the center of the peep sight. You need a larger peep sight for this, which gives you a better view of the prey.

Finally, look at additional features of the sight. Some models have pins that are lighted electronically or that have a light source, which is ideal when you plan to hunt at night. Choose a sight that is light so that the bow will not be thrown out of balance. Also, go for camouflaged sights to prevent it from calling attention. Choosing the right sight will definitely improve your bowhunting skills!

Sight Unseen $8.99 The New York Times bestselling author of Witnessed, Intruders, and Missing Time -- three groundbreaking books on the UFO phenomenon -- returns with astonishing evidence that other-worldly beings are a very real -- and growing -- part of our lives. In Sight Unseen, Budd Hopkins and coauthor Carol Rainey show how fascinating discoveries in modern science support the plausibility of the UFO phenomenon. Featuring sixteen never-before-published cases, Sight Unseen probes two newly uncovered patterns in alien abduction: cases of UFO "invisibility" and reports of genetically altered alien beings who interact with humans during their routine lives. The "invisibility" accounts detailed by Hopkins include numerous daylight abductions in densely populated urban areas -- all apparently unseen and accomplished through a technology of invisibility. Two air force non-coms are snatched from the tarmac of a busy military airfield. An Australian family is levitated up into a hovering craft while the father remains paralyzed on the ground with a camera to his eye. The resulting evidence on film is discussed in terms of our own scientific advances. In the second series of cases, abductees report encounters with beings who appear human but apparently possess paranormal powers and stunted emotional ranges. Three young women, unknown to each other, are mysteriously summoned to "job interviews." In ordinary office settings, they encounter human-looking beings who lead them into baffling UFO abduction experiences. A Wisconsin farmer meets "Damoe," a man with odd behavior who closely resembles his son. Damoe eventually reveals himself as an accomplice of UFO occupants in a startling abduction of the farmer and his wife. Five-year-old Jen is abducted at night to a nearby playground. There she must teach the techniques and skills of "play" to twelve seemingly identical, quasi-human children. Along with these bizarre, first-person stories told by credible people, Hopkins and Rainey explore cutting-edge advances in our own technologies and scientific theories that show how these new UFO patterns could have a concrete basis in contemporary science. Included are an examination of cloaking devices for aircraft, mind-control technologies, and teleportation achieved in the lab. Perhaps the most compelling argument to support these cases lies in the startling and controversial new science of transgenics that actually allows for the creation of alien/human beings.
