Good advice on Taking Your Time. Your sighting-in shots have to be precise at 20 and 60. If the weather isn’t optimum, you’re fatigued or if you’re simply not shooting your best that day, the results will be inaccurate. STOP! All of these things could lead to your selecting the wrong sight tape, and result in increased frustration and, perhaps, missing a big buck or elk. So, sighting-in isn’t a project to take-on the day prior to a hunting trip or before a big 3D tournament. While it can be done on relatively short notice if needed, a lot of things have to be perfect, and they rarely are, to ensure proper alignment of your yardages.

loosen the windage knob and Clockwise moves the pin left. Counter-clockwise moves the pin right.

Great Video and impeccable shooting. I'm also in the market for a spot hogg Fast eddie XL double pin. I'm curious what your experience has been using the second pin. Is the second pin accurate moving the site up and down? For example when your top pin is set to 20 do you find the bottom pin accurate to 30? 30 and 40? 40 and 50? my experience with individual pin adjustment on multi pin sights is the drop is not always the same amounting in different distances between pins. Thanks in advance!

@MichiganGreatOutdoors

To be perfectly honest it was accurate to 55 yards, and I never tried it past that. It was 13 yards gap between the 2 pins. If I just shot over 55 it would be the top pin. The sight is badass IMO. I really like it, I might make a new video when I get my new bow in a few weeks. Thanks for watching!

I hope I don't sound like an idiot but I'm completely new at this. Once you do this, then you can freely move around the remaining pins you have (if you have say a 3 pin like I do) so you don't have to move the sight up and down correct? If so, how can you make your bottom pin be the pin that you use when moving the sight up and down? I hope I make sense.

The sight in the video has 2 pins, when you roll the sight they both move but the sight has 2 pointers. As long as everything is calibrated correctly it you can roll the top pine to 100 yards if you want. Some of the spot hog MRT series sights work differently. The fast eddie xl 2 pin uses the 2 pointers which correlate to the sight tape you create when you do the calibration procedure.
