Abstract
A new and useful device and method is provided, for sighting an arrow being shot from a bow. A sight pin adjustment mechanism is associated with a plurality of sight pins, and is uniquely configured to be manipulated to simultaneously adjust each of the sight pins according to a predetermined trajectory formula that is at least partially related to the speed of an arrow as it leaves the bow. In one preferred form of the present invention, the sight includes an arrow speed calibration scale that is selectively moveable relative to an archery bow, and the plurality of sight pins are simultaneously moveable relative to the arrow speed calibration scale, and according to the predetermined trajectory formula. Also in a preferred form of the present invention, the sight pin adjustment mechanism comprises a shaft that is supported on the housing and has a plurality of lead screw portions, each of which is coupled with a respective sight pin. The pitch of each lead screw portion is determined according to the predetermined trajectory formula, to enable simultaneous adjustment of respective sight pins according to the predetermined trajectory formula.
