Title: newbie with sight questions
Post by: getreal711 on April 01, 2015, 10:04:26 AM: I recently decided to take up bow hunting. The sight with my new bow is a trophy ridge 4 pin with a light. Reading up on regs tells me I need to replace the sight because it's got the light. Want to make sure i'M reading thing right.
