I am having trouble getting my Trophy Ridge to hit the target @ 20 yds, shooting extremely low and I have maxed out the adjustment getting the arrow on target to raise only slightly. Any suggestions?

I had somethinglike it. I changed the mounting holes, as there are several options. It pushed the pins further out the front, but I was able to dial in and I LOVE IT. Once I got the forty set the other were with in as well. I tweek it before shots if I need to, but that is rare.

Make Sure Your arrow rest is centered perfectly to the string. Can You see the sight clearly through the peep?? When i Shot low, my anchor point where i put the release on my face was too high thus pushing the arrow down. that could be it. but make sure everything else is also in order.

You must have a basic mounting alignment issue, I agree any archery center should be able to help you out quickly

The sight is designed to be flipped over to increase range. Remove the site from the mounting bracket, flip it over, and re-mount, now you'll be a high :) Happy shooting.

Check your alignment. If all that checks out then u need to make sure your bow has a hihh enough bow speed for the sight to work properly...you can either have the bow shop chrono it for you...has to be a minimum of 240 fps for the react to work properly...or you can increase the poundage a little if you can ...thats what I had to do to get it tuned properly...but once I got it set its awesome

I would take it to a pro shop and have tem check your mounting and shooting stance.

I have a PSE stinger which produces a little over 300 fps and it does fine for me. I realize that isn't super fast but even breaching 300 fps the arrows only get about 8" into the target. The middle got a little soft after shooting some broad heads through it before last hunting season. It still stops arrows in the dead center though. They just stick out the back a little. I don't recommend this target for broad heads at all. Mine took about 500 field tips with absolutely no signs of wear before I shot it with broad heads. I'd actually get one of the bigger models like the 20" or 22". This one is a little small for shooting at the corner dots from longer distances.

It depends on the poundage of your bow. If you are not shooting 70+lbs or higher the sight will not go past 70yds. I am struggling with that now and may change out the sight for the hogg father.

Ok so I don't have it stock anymore. I put a Leupold Crossbones on it instead of the luminated no brand that it came with. The other was fine I just have older eyes and prefer Leupold. I also installed limbsavers and updated to an Alpine quiver that holds 6 arrows instead of 3. All of that may or may not have added to its weight. Mine weighs in at 11.8 #. I bought the Primos trigger stick 2 and that solved the weight issue. Don't let the weight scare you away, this is an amazingly fast and accurate bow. I carry it with a threepoint AR-15 sling which hangs it in front and to my left side for quick target acquisition and so that I can watch my limbs and cables as I go through the brush.Hope this helped.

I witness with the matech and a Troy hk front. I use a red dot on with a hi tug ring on a 1/2" riser and get a lower 1/3 Caithness. Never take my red dot off and have used the irons out to 400 yds. I just turn off the red dot for distance shots. Use this set up in 3 Gun matches. Works well and the MaTech is great. Jack

Zeroed in on a High Point 995 TS in 4 rounds. Really liked it but after 100+ rounds started to drop out turning off. Found I had to select between numbered settings and couldn't trust it would stay on. Also took one battery to determine on / off of sight. Really thought I had a winner however unless I can figure out how to set so it holds in the on position will return to my scope and file this in the $20 loss column. Any thoughts from other users how to deal with this issue. Appears to be a recoil issue.

You will have to serve it onto the buss cable. I wanted to learn anyway, so I bought a serving kit from cabelas. A quick YouTube search taught me how. You could always take it to a local bow shop. I have mine mounted to a 2005 bowtech diamond rapture.I will say this, I shot it for the first time today and the adjustment kept working loose. I'm going to attempt to return it and go back to trophy ridge.

I'm still working with mine but here is what some other owners have said: H&N; Field Target Trophy - 20 yds -- 1/2 " center to center. 50 yds - 0.83 CTC; another said 1/2" groups at 25 yds and same with Crosman Premier Domes. Another said 1" groups at 30 yds but better with RWS Superdomes. This varies but hope this helps. Personally, I like the gun and it seems very accurate using RWS SuperDomes. Now trying the H&N; FTT.

You have to find that sweet spot.. I would need to know what type of gun you are using. Think of it like this.. The sight is aiming straight at the target but the barrel is 2-3" lower depending on the setup. So at 25 yards the barrel is aimed up at the same point as your sight is seeing but if you aim out to 35 yards the the sight remains on the same line of sight but the bullet will continue upward.

I agree with Tyler. This is a piece of junk. All that mine is good for is a spotting scope at close range. The cross hairs won't move up, down or sideways. It starts to get fuzzy around 26 power. At 32 I can't make out the target at 100feet much less 500 feet. Don't get excited over the price. It's a wonder the price hasn't been lowered so the inventory will move faster.

Take off the vertacle and horizontal adjustment caps pick a distance 20-30 yards and shoot and adjust over and over till zeroed in after that you have to aim higher or lower depending on your target

Try using one of the other settings or turn your brightness down low. If the dot covers the target and it is zeroed than it's a kill shot. End of problem! Douglas in Virginia

Might have to loosen the bolt holding the yellow back upright. Was a little too tight for my .177 (485 fpe)at 35 feet. You might be underpowered over 7-8 yards.

Try remounting the scope, reset it to factory, and adjust to your preference. If that doesn't not help I would ask, are you breathing before you pull trigger because when you fire your pulling down and naturally the gun wants to follow.

Not a clue. I shoot a Wicked Ridge Raider at 330 and put on a 150 grain field tip. The arrow is .5 inches high at 20 and dead nuts on at 30 and 40 using the stock scope. I am 56 and have shot 20 bucks with a bow. For an aluminum arrow they are a good value and work just fine.

I'm not sure I understand what you mean exactly. But here are a couple things I would try: Move your sights farther apart (as far as possible), not closer, the longer your sight plane/picture the better accuracy. When sighting, perhaps start with the large open circle reticle, then flip to the small pin-hole after you sight in. Other than that, the only thing I could think of could be that you have the front sight mounted to a gas block, and the rear sight mounted to your flat-top rail. And those two parts are not the same height (gasblock is shorter) If so, move the front sight up onto the quad-rail (if yours has the same height as receiver rail height), if not, you need a gas block height front sight, or a fore end that is the same height as the rail on your receiver. You have to bring the sights onto the same plane, that's the jist of it. And if that still doesn't work, maybe you forgot to open your eye. lol. good luck.
