  • Patent number: 4178693
    Abstract: An archery bow sight and range finder including a pair of vertically spaced and laterally extending mirrors slidably mounted on a bow attached bracket and finger trigger actuable by the archer when grasping and aiming the bow. A center bead is associated with the lowermost mirror and the angle of the upper mirror is changed by trigger action to vary the elevation angle of the bow, with split image viewing being employed, combined with trigger action, to locate the exact range of target, one half of the target being viewed directly and the other half being seen through the mirrors. Lateral point of aim is determined by the lower mirror bead being positioned in the center of the combined split image.
