Setup and Installation

Proper installation and initial setup are crucial for optimal performance of your Trophy Ridge Peak Bow Sight. This sight is designed for easy mounting and adjustment.

Mounting the Sight

  1. Ensure your bow is securely held in a vice or stable position.
  2. Align the sight's mounting bracket with the threaded holes on your bow's riser. The Peak sight offers multiple mounting positions for better fit and adjustment.
  3. Insert the mounting screws (typically provided with your bow or sight) and hand-tighten them.
  4. Once aligned, use an appropriate hex key or wrench to securely tighten the mounting screws. Do not overtighten.

Initial Adjustments

The Peak sight features tool-less micro-click adjustments for both windage and elevation, along with 2nd axis leveling.

  • Windage Adjustment: Use the horizontal adjustment knob to move the pins left or right. Each click provides a fine adjustment.
  • Elevation Adjustment: Use the vertical adjustment knob to move the pins up or down. Each click allows for precise elevation changes.
  • 2nd Axis Leveling: The sight includes a precision-installed bubble level. Ensure your bow is perfectly level when making adjustments to prevent canting errors. Adjust the 2nd axis if the bubble is not level when the bow is plumb.

Operating the Sight

The Trophy Ridge Peak sight is designed for intuitive use, providing clear aiming points and adaptability to various light conditions.

Vertical In-Line Pin Technology

Unlike traditional horizontal pins, the Peak sight features five ultra-bright .019" fiber optic pins arranged vertically. This design provides a less cluttered sight picture, allowing for a clearer, unobstructed view of your target.

Rheostat Light and Glow Ring

For low-light conditions, the sight is equipped with an adjustable rheostat light and a glow-in-the-dark ring. The rheostat light illuminates the fiber optic pins, while the glow ring enhances visibility of the sight housing.

  • To activate the rheostat light, rotate the knob located on the sight housing. Adjust the brightness to your preference.
  • The glow-in-the-dark ring charges with ambient light and provides passive illumination for the sight housing.

Maintenance

Regular maintenance will ensure the longevity and performance of your Trophy Ridge Peak Bow Sight.

  • Cleaning: Use a soft, damp cloth to wipe down the sight body and pins. Avoid harsh chemicals that could damage the finish or fiber optics. For the pins, a soft brush can remove dust and debris.
  • Inspections: Periodically check all screws and fasteners for tightness, especially the mounting screws and adjustment locks. Vibration from shooting can cause them to loosen over time.
  • Fiber Optics: Keep the fiber optic pins clean and free from obstructions to ensure maximum brightness.
  • Storage: When not in use, store the sight in a protective case or in a dry environment to prevent damage and corrosion.

Troubleshooting

This section addresses common issues you might encounter with your bow sight.

Problem Possible Cause Solution
Windage/Elevation adjustment knob loosens during use. Vibration from shooting. Ensure the adjustment lock (if present) is fully engaged. Periodically check and tighten the adjustment knob's retaining screw if applicable.
Adjusting the sight feels stiff or gets stuck. Accumulation of dirt or debris; lack of lubrication. Clean the adjustment mechanisms thoroughly. Apply a small amount of silicone-based lubricant if necessary, avoiding contact with fiber optics.
Pins appear crooked or misaligned. Improper mounting; manufacturing defect. Re-check that the sight is mounted squarely and securely to the bow. Ensure the 2nd axis is properly leveled. If the issue persists, contact Trophy Ridge customer support.
Pins are not bright enough in low light. Rheostat light off or low; dirty fiber optics; insufficient ambient light. Turn on and adjust the rheostat light. Clean fiber optic pins. Ensure the glow ring has been exposed to light to charge.
