Title: 2nd and 3rd axis leveling
Post by: hogslayer on April 18, 2013, 08:40:16 AM: I am trying to level my sight out (spot-Hogg 5 pin) and I have noticed that all the "pros" do it different. Bill from nock point told me to hang it from a string by the cam and check your level.... Other guys say to check it at full draw with a level on the side of your riser ? What have you guys found to be the easiest way to set this up?

Nuts & Bolts has a very good 3rd axis explaination on Archery Talk.
