I shot with my "No Peep" today. It works well, but is it really okay to be looking along side the string instead of though it?

Alos, my groups seem to be more vertically dispersed than horizontally dispersed with the No Peep. The overall size is about the same. What does this mean?

I don't look at my no-peep when I shoot. I glance over to be sure I'm holding properly and then concentrate on the pin sight and the target. I find that after a while I stop looking at the no-peep all together. Every once in a while I glance over and if it looks good I concentrate on the shot not the no-peep. Shoot it for a while and you will see the advantages. After one day or a few dozen arrows it will probably not change your life completely.

My no-peep is on the same side of the string as my pin sight, just slightly higher and off to the right. I think you could mount it anyplace. I don't look through my string at all. It's well away from the view of the string.

If your anchor point is 100% consistant, you have drawn to a consistant length "the wall" and the no-peep is dead center then the only issues can be the release and your aim.

Most likely you are seeing vertical dispersion because the string is to the side of your nose. Even with a consistant anchor you will see VD because your head is not in the same place twice.

The correct way is to touch the string to the tip of your nose. It acts as a secondary anchor. With the string beside your nose it allows you subconsiously to tilt your head up or down slightly and differently with each shot.

With the head tilted slightly up the sights will be raised inadvertantly to match your line of sight causing you to shoot slightly high. The next shot with your head tilted slighlty lower will cause the shot to be lower............hence the vertical dispersion.
