Default sight problems

not with my bow sights with my eyesight. not distances but close up i need reading glasses to see upclose and am having trouble focussing my pins. i have moved the sight as for forward as possible and it helps some ivetryed shooting with glasses on and it was very awkward seems as if i would have to change form to do it. anchor,nose on string.and im sure tring to hunt with reading glasses would disstort your ability to judge distances. any suggestions.

To some extent I would agree with jersey. Have you considered contacts?

Am I right in surmising that you can see the pins though they may be a bit blurry. The target itself is still crystal clear though, yes? That may not be as much of a problem as you think. Many folks encourage the shooter to focus on the target and not the pins in order to eliminate some forms of target panic and promote a more relaxed, subconscious shot.
