A method provides a visual reference for establishing an archery sight setting for an archery sight employed when aiming a bow. The method includes receiving, with the touch screen display, a user-input identifying at least one feature of selected archery equipment, the selected archery equipment including the archery sight and the bow and establishing, by the processing device, the archery sight setting based at least in part on at least one feature identified by the user-input, the archery sight setting established to provide a desired level of accuracy for the selected archery equipment. The method also includes outputting, by the processing device, the archery sight setting for display in the touch screen display and employing the archery sight setting as a visual reference for adjusting the archery sight to locate at least one sight pin at a height to provide the desired level of accuracy for the selected archery equipment.

Systems and methods for archery equipment

A system includes at least one processor; a memory configured to store for each of the plurality of sight tapes, a first distance separating two sight marks included on each of the plurality of sight tapes, respectively, the two sight marks including a first sight mark associated with a first known shot-distance and a second sight mark associated with a second known shot-distance; a sight setting module configured to determine sight settings for the selected archery equipment and determine a second distance separating a first sight setting associated with the first known shot-distance and a second sight setting associated with the second known shot-distance; and a comparison module configured to compare a value of the second distance with a value of the respective first distances to determine which of the respective first distances most closely matches the second distance.

Apparatus, system and method for archery sight tape selection

An electronic apparatus is configured for inclusion in an arrow when shot from a bow. In some embodiments, the electronic apparatus includes a drawn tubular body and a circuit board located at least partly within the drawn tubular body.

Apparatus, system and method for electronic archery device

A non-transitory computer-readable medium whose contents cause a processing device including a touch screen display to perform a method for generating an archery sight setting, the method including acts of rendering a graphical user interface in the touch screen display, receiving a first input to the graphical user interface to select at least one archery parameter, and presenting a plurality of sight marks in the graphical user interface including at least a first sight mark and a second sight mark, the plurality of sight marks scaled within the graphical user interface to provide a 1:1 ratio between a first distance separating the first sight mark and the second sight mark in the graphical user interface and a second distance separating a first sighted-in position and a second sighted-in position in an archery sight including at least one mechanically-adjusted sight pin.

Apparatus, system and method for archery sight settings

A method is provided for improving athletic performance in a sport in which participants employ a projectile during competition. The method includes training for the sport with a sensing system included in the projectile, where flight characteristics of the projectile remain substantially unchanged with the sensing system included in the projectile relative to the flight characteristics of the projectile as used in competition without the sensing system. The method also includes evaluating at least one flight characteristic measured by the sensing system when the projectile is employed with the sensing system, and if the act of evaluating finds that adjusting at least one physical characteristic of the projectile may assist in improving the participant's performance, changing the at least one physical characteristic.

Methods for improving athletic performance

An apparatus is configured for inclusion in an arrow. In one embodiment, the apparatus includes a sensor configured to provide data concerning one or more flight characteristics of the arrow in flight and a communication link coupled to the sensor, the communication link configured to communicate the data to a device external to the arrow.

According to one aspect, an apparatus is configured to couple to an arrow-mounted electronic device where the apparatus includes a housing, a receptacle included in the housing and at least one electrical contact configured to couple to a contact included in the arrow-mounted electronic device. According to one embodiment, the receptacle is configured to receive at least a portion of the arrow-mounted electronic device, the at least one electrical contact includes a spring-bias in a first direction and the spring bias is opposed with the arrow-mounted electronic device inserted within the receptacle.

Apparatus, system and method for electronic archery devices

In one aspect, a method of determining an instantaneous speed of an arrow, includes determining a time-of-flight of the arrow; determining a distance between a location from which the arrow is loosed and a location of a target-face; providing, with an apparatus included in the arrow, data from at least a portion of a free flight of the arrow; and determining the instantaneous speed of the arrow for at least one point of the free-flight by employing each of: a) the time-of-flight; b) the distance; and c) at least some of the data provided by the apparatus.

Apparatus, system and method employing arrow flight-data

A system includes a sensing device configured for inclusion in an arrow when shot from a bow and configured to provide an output concerning arrow speed in response to the arrow being shot from the bow; and a processing device in communication with the sensing device, the processing device configured to receive the output and determine at least one value of arrow speed for a flight of the arrow when shot from the bow.

Apparatus, system and method for archery equipment

An apparatus is configured for inclusion in an arrow, where the apparatus includes a device configured to provide feedback to a user concerning the arrow shot from a bow, and a processor coupled to the device, the processor configured to control an operation of the device at least during a flight of the arrow.
