Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION [0001] The present invention relates to an archery peep sight and in particular to an archery peep sight that allows persons who are far-sighted to see the pins of the front sight. [0002] Peep sights used in archery are well-established aiming devices contributing to the enhancement of the skills of the archer. Peep sights of the general class of the invention are mounted on the bowstring above the nocking point so that upon drawing the bowstring back the archer may align with one eye the small bore of the peep sight with a bow sight pin or with a target. The locating of a target and the sighting on a target through a constricted, small-diameter peep sight is a difficult task aggravated by the very limited field that is viewable through the peep sight. Once the target is “lost,” it is difficult to relocate and to reorient the peep sight bore in registry with the intended precise field of interest. Also, even the slightest misalignment of the bore of the p...
