Archery is a high-powered sport that demands accurate shots. An archery bow sight is a crucial tool to help the archer shoot accurately. Archers have long used sights for both hunting and sport to help get accurate shots. Both sporting factions have their favorite archery bows and hunting bows, as well as sights to suit their needs.
More and more archery bows and bow sights are refined by technology. You can buy them ranging from simple sights and green dot sights to pin sights that are adjustable and laser technology to pinpoint your target.
Different archery bow views
The sights work with a small hole in a ring to narrow your vision towards your target. While laser archery sights give you a laser beam to directly follow your target.
Archery pin views
Archery sights work with a series of pins that provide an accurate point of view when properly aligned. There are many archery sights, one example I like is the Truglo Range Rover. It’s more compact than other single-pin sights with yards tape that glows in the dark to help you aim at low light levels.
You may also want to check out the views of Spot Hogg’s Boss Hogg pins. Their archery sights range from single pin sights to the impressive Seven Deadly Pin that gives you unwavering precision and reliability with seven individually micro-adjustable fiber optic pins.
Green Point Archery Lookouts
Green dot archery sights use a green dot instead of a cross to align the target like the Truglo Powerdot Archery Green Dot Sight. Use these archery sights to hunt for bows and they are versatile enough like all other archery bows.
Fiber optic sights
Then there are fiber optic sights, like Truglo’s pendulum bow sight, which locks in place or can automatically compensate your sight for shots over 35 yards. This bow sight is versatile and has extra long shielded fibers and dual pin rails for precision sight alignment.
Choosing a bow sight
The type of bow sight you choose depends on the type of shot you take. If you hunt, you may want a sight that’s lightweight and compact for getting around rough terrain.
If you shoot competitive archery, you may want something heavier to give you stability when shooting. Whatever the type of archery, bow sights are tremendous in helping you improve your accuracy.
