A peepsight is a small aperture (similar to a “peep hole”) inserted into the string of a compound bow. When drawing the bow, the archer looks through the peepsight and aligns it with the front sight (scope), creating a precise sight line—similar to using a traditional aperture sight.

Functions:

  • Ensures a consistent head position
  • Provides precise sight alignment
  • Increases shot repeatability

The peepsight is usually screwed into the string and adjusted to match the archer’s personal anchor point and head position.
