Sight & Rest Installation

Short answer: a rest or sight is only as good as its installation — a few millimeters of misalignment at the riser can throw arrows off by inches downrange.

Whether you're upgrading to a new drop-away rest, adding a multi-pin sight, or replacing a damaged accessory, correct installation matters as much as the part itself. We mount, center, and align every accessory to your specific bow and shooting style.

After installation, we confirm everything with paper tuning so you leave knowing your new gear is actually dialed in — not just bolted on and hoped for.

Common Questions

Can you install a rest or sight I already bought?+

Yes — we regularly install customer-supplied accessories, whether purchased from us or elsewhere.

What kind of rest should I get?+

It depends on your shooting style — hunting, target, or 3D all favor slightly different setups. Call to schedule a visit and we'll talk through what makes sense for how you shoot.

Does a new sight need to be re-sighted-in after installation?+

Yes. We get it mounted, leveled, and roughly zeroed in the shop, but you'll want to fine-tune your pin gaps at your own distances once you're shooting it regularly.
