Checking for Torque on the Xero Bow Sights

To ensure that a proper and accurate shot takes place, maintaining a proper shooting form while ranging a target can be just as important as aiming through the Xero® A1, Xero® A1i, and Xero® A1i PRO bow sights. If the anchor point, wrist alignment, and or grip on the bow are not consistent, then abnormalities in shot consistency can emerge. Holding your wrist level and avoiding torque will help you make more accurate shots across all ranges.

Checking Torque

• While at full draw and depressing the ranging button, Xero bow sights make use of two focal planes that allow the primary pin (red dot) and reticle (green circle) to align for aiming your shot, much like iron sights on a rifle.
  
  Example of Alignment

  
  
• If the red dot is outside the green reticle within the aperture, it is possible that your form is not steady. Not using the same anchor point, or not applying the same grip pressure, that as you used during the initial Calibration Process can cause the sight to appear out of alignment.
  
  Example

  
  
• Perfect alignment and form will show the red dot within the the green reticle circle. Releasing the ranging button while on target, will show the calibrated pin and allow you to take a shot.
