On my old compound (before it was stolen) I loved my sights. Switched to archery because it was to easy to shoot a deer in my old back yard with a rifle even open sight 30-30. I am trying to do the "instinctive shooting with the long bow. I was GREAT at it as a kid. Well 25+ yrs later not so much. I wouldn't trust myself to go hunting but target practice is fun, and should probably be done more often.
In college when I took archery they just had a bit of Styrofoam taped to the bow with a pin stuck on the Styrofoam.

The head of the pin was the sight.
Makes since and works. A little fragile but effective.

@CLSranch -- dare I ask? 😁 how'd the ride go??

Off work today and got a little farm time. Still too wet for a lot but, I managed to get another trailer full of hay before this load was all sold out. My goats think it's candy and this stuff is beautiful! After loading, unloading an moving some to another building, probably won't be able to get out of bed tomorrow. 😁 I'll take a long, hot shower before bed to ease up the tightened up. Got that? Hey, working all week ....need to be movable.

Also had a short cat nap ... It was warm out, I was out there! Makes you sleepy. Rain tomorrow :(. Glad to have a day to relax and enjoy "my own" time. I highly recommend it.

It worked great...

And in a class setting it worked great.. since every class you had to re-sight the bow.

But yes, a bit fragile... so indoors aiming it was great... but I am sure it would result in tears of frustration if you had to carry it through woods for hunting

Raining cats and dogs, lightning cracking. Trip, big scaredy-cat Great Pyrenees is in the living room floor. Satellite TV is off. We got enough of the news to tell us it was storming. No kidding? Really? Need to get feed but that ain’t happening tomorrow. My rain gauge got cracked in Snowmeggdon. Got a new one, it’s on the table-doing me not much good about now.

@CLSranch what breed of filly? How’d she do?

Thanks for the coffee. We had thunderstorms last night, lightning strikes and I hope no more trees blown apart by lightning. It’s 40F cold and wet. Been out to feed Reject and Tiny their bottles. Fed ewes and Ringo and put out fresh feed in the creep feeder. Lambs eat in shifts, biggest go in first, then smaller lambs. All are doing well.

PA the weather might be icky now, but spring is coming and soon everything will be green and it will be warm. Hang in there.
