Dad just bought a Fred bear light out bow and we was wondering if I sight it in for him will it still shot the same for him?

From my experience the short answer is no. You might be able to get it close assuming that your draw length is close to what his would be. But ultimately he has to be the one to get it fine tuned to his liking.

+1 to above

As a rule of thumb no, Beyond draw length, the anchor point would have to be the same. And the same relationship from anchor point to peep to eye.

What are you guys talking about!? The pros on TV do it all the time. One guy shoots a booner buck, then they switch bow/camera, and the other guy shoots a booner buck!

Seriously, though, I agree with the previous comments.

That is what happens when you film the hunting show after the hunting...

No !

Highly unlikely.

Ok thanks that's what u thought

Probably not, but only one way to find out...

If the bow is set up for him (ie peep, etc) and you sight it in, it should be close enough that you can get him dialed in within a couple of arrows.

The only way is if you have the exact anchor point and draw as him. Otherwise like said above it will shoot differently.
