I am new with a bow and can not seem to get it "dialed" in. My 20 aqnd 30 yd pins seem ok on distance however I am consistly missing to the right. Is it the way im holding the bow? All my pins are as far right as they can possibly be moved. I am using a PSE silverhawk, I know its not a top of the line bow but I wanted to start in a lower price range incase bow hunting wasn't for me. I fell in love with it. Now I need to get better. Someone please tell me what im doing wrong.

First as a basic firearms instructor, I wonder if eye dominance is a possible cause. Second are you sure your moving the pin the right direction. Try a large change to see if you get the right change. Your pins should be moved right to get arrow to hit left as the pins would be like moving the front sight of a rifle. your rear sight is a peep or some other marking on the string. I am a bow hunter, who has went though a number of problems, getting on target. Wrong sights for the bow, loose sights. Just keep working at it and you will find the answer or go to the bow shop and have them help you....Have someone video you and check your form.
