A peep sight for an archery bow includes a peep sight body with a sight aperture extending therethrough. The sight aperture has an inner surface to create a sight window with a central axis. A rear sight post is located in the sight aperture for alignment with a sight pin or the like of a front sight mounted to the riser of a bow. The rear sight post has a width sufficiently wide to ensure at least a portion of the rear sight post is viewable when in the aiming position in close proximity to the eye yet on the other hand, yet sufficiently narrow to allow ambient light to illuminate the sides of the sight post.

An apparatus may include a shaft comprising a vertical slit configured to engage an archery bow string, a first end positioned on an upper portion of the shaft, a second end positioned on a lower portion of the shaft, and a radial projection positioned around the first end in which the radial projection comprises a curved surface configured to engage a nose or a mouth of an archer.

A system for aiming an archery bow may include a tobe defining a longitudinal axis and may include a longitudinal slit. The tube and the longitudinal slit are configured to engage an archery bow string along the longitudinal axis of the tube. A portion of the tube may further include a projection having a curved surface and the projection may include a frustum.

A method for aiming an archery bow includes the steps of 1) providing an archery bow having a bow string, 2) providing an aiming apparatus in which the aiming apparatus may include a beam having a longitudinal slit configured to engage the bow string along a longitudinal axis of the beam, and a portion of the beam may further include a projection having a curved surface. The projection may also include a frustum. The steps may further include 3) inserting the bow string into the longitudinal slit and positioning the aiming apparatus to a first point on the bow string so that when drawn the aiming apparatus contacts a point on an archer's nose, 4) drawing the bow string to a firing position, and 5) positioning the bow string so that the aiming apparatus contacts the archer's nose.

In a method and system for determining a preferred location for a peep sight on a compound bow, an eye height measurement is requested from or otherwise obtained from a user, and measurements of the compound bow are requested or retrieved. From such measurements, a preferred location for a peep sight can be determined.

An achromatic lenses for a peep sight is to be mounted onto an archery bowstring. The achromatic lens is to be situated and retained in a lens cavity of the peep sight and includes various positive verifier or a negative clarifier glass lens joined by cement to a negative or positive flint lens, respectively. The peep sight has a peep sight body mounted to the bowstring with an internal hole therethrough with a front end, facing a front bow sight, and a rear end facing an archer's eye. An aperture with the lens cavity has a front end and a rear end and is adapted for locking engagement within the hole of the body. The aperture has a passage therethrough axially aligned with the threaded hole with a front end facing the front bow sight and a rear end to be facing the archer's eye. The lens cavity is in the passage suitably adjacent to the aperture's front end.
