It would bother me more that your bow is backward :chuckle:

Have you tried mounting your quiver bracket yet?  I'm curious as to whether it is compatible with that sight.  I've never tried to put those two together.  In my head I'm having a hard time making them work.
He asked, Do you ever give a short simple answer?  I replied, "Nope."

As a matter of fact, yes I've 'tried.'  It is compatible, as the site has a spot where the Tightspot bracket fits perfectly.  However, for some reason, the mounting screws seem to be too large of a diameter.  I'd planned on taking it to the archery tech today, to have him mount it for me, but halfway between Spokane and Cda, I received a call that forced me to turn around...Ugh!  That seems to be how my entire day has gone so far.  Anyway, I called him, explaining my thoughts.  He said that the Tightspot bracket mounting bolts WILL fit that sight.  He explained that Tightspot only sends one size of bolts, and that they fit almost all sights, including the one I have.  Hmmm.  I'm going to try again, but I'm not going to force them in.  If all else fails, I'll run it out to him in the next few days.  I think I left an arrow out there anyway.  I took 3 with me...now I only have 2...though it might be in the Suburban somewhere.  Today, I swear I'm losing my mind with all the running around I've done, getting absolutely nothing accomplished!

Geeze, it sounds like you are self employed! :chuckle:

I finally made it to the club range this morning and spent a couple hours shooting/sighting in.  I learned something valuable!  It would seem, buying used bows makes sighting in much easier!  HAHA.  My previous 2 bows were both used.  Once I set the Peep to my eye, all I needed to do was either raise/lower, move left/right, the entire sight housing.  I've never had to move individual pins.  NOT the case with a new bow/sight!  Here, at home, I'd sighted in to 20 yards.  I got out to the range and was hitting low at 30, 40 50 etc., but dead on at 20.  "Chasing the arrow" with the entire housing resulted in hitting high at 20, obviously.  It finally dawned on me that I needed to individually move each pin.  So far, I'm not completely sighted in but much closer out to 50 yards.  After two hours of shooting, my shoulder told me it was time to take a break.  I may get out there again this evening, or tomorrow morning, to continue working on it.

28" draw length and 440 grain arrows form a Hoyt CE-G3...You should buy that Chrony :chuckle:  You'd sell a lot of bows if you had guys shoot through that one ;)  That's about 20 fps faster than that bow should shoot at 65#!

In hunting you are probably not going to use those last two pins on that sight anyway.  So where the first one is set shouldn't make any difference at all.  I'd set it for 20 and if you start having issues pull it off or swing it around for a 90.  Going to be just for looks more than likely anyway.  Though 90 yards is a great distance to practice :tup:

What were you trying to find out about that sight?  It's a pretty neat little sight, but no longer available since they went to the cheaper Dual Rod.  You got the better one IMO!

I guess I'm looking for anything that I can, from the manufacturer.  Instructions, specs, etc.  I cannot even find any information on the manufacturer's website.  I've searched Youtube, with very little success, also.

The Carbon Blade bow sight is still pretty much a Fuse version of Axion Archery's sights.  Fuse usually has there twist to it, but the adjustments and the concepts are still the same.  Actually, pretty much the same as nearly every micro gang adjustable sight made in the past couple decades ;)
* Micro Gang adjust for windage
* Micro Gang adjust for elevation
* Individual pin adjustment (allen head)
* 2nd Axis adjustment via oblong allen mounting screw hole
* 3rd Axis adjustment via bubble level mounting screw

You could easily lose your mind trying to get the 3rd axis on this type of sight set and secured.  But it does happen if you can keep your sanity.  When setting the 3rd axis you will soon realize why top target shooters are willing to pay the big bucks for Spot Hogg and Sure-Loc :chuckle:  Second axis isn't too difficult.

Not much available online from Axion Archery either.  But I'm sure you could call and ask for instructions for any of their micro adjust sights and be ok.  Won't be exactly the same thing, but so dang close you won't miss a thing.  Will be basically the same thing as the current model micro adjust Fuse Helix Micro as well.

UHOH!  I guess I'm going to have to research 2nd Axis and 3rd Axis, so I understand what those actually are...

 :chuckle:  You'll be Doomed!  :chuckle:

Spot Hogg does instructions better than anyone.  You pins work differently, but you will understand if you open the instructions for the Hogg-It sight at this link  http://spot-hogg.com/interactive/
