A bow sight including a fixed rear sight element and forward sight element that is adjustable to compensate for targets at varying ranges while an archer is drawing and/or aiming the bow. By moving the lever, the archer adjusts the forward sight element to accurately align thy bow sight with a target at a specific range. A range scale pointer is coupled to the forward sight element and points to a selected range on a range scale. Preferably, the range scale, pointer and both sight elements are in the archer's sight line so that the archer can confirm alignment of the bow sight with the target at a specific range as the archer is drawing and/or aiming the bow. The bow sight includes forward and rearward sight guards dimensioned that appear the same size to the archer while aiming to provide initial alignment of the bow sight with a target.

1. An adjustable sight for a bow comprising:a mounting bracket including a forward end and a rearward end;a rearward sight pin fixedly mounted to the rearward end;an adjustment lever pivotally joined with the mounting bracket including an arm, the adjustment lever and arm movable relative to the mounting bracket and the bow in a curvilinear path by an archer while drawing the bow and aiming at a target;a forward sight pin;means for adjusting the forward sight pin in a first direction when the adjustment lever is moved relative to the mounting bracket and the bow in the curvilinear path by the archer while drawing the bow and aiming at a target;a pointer fixedly joined in fixed relation to the forward sight pin, said pointer moving in unison with the forward sight pin in the first direction and moving relative to the mounting bracket and the bow when the adjustment lever is moved in the curvilinear path; anda range scale adjacent the pointer, wherein the pointer, forward sight pin and range scale are viewed by the archer while the bow is drawn and while aiming at a target. 2. The adjustable sight of claim 1 wherein the mounting bracket defines a mounting bracket slot in the forward end. 3. The adjustable sight of claim 2 wherein the adjusting means includes a sight pin holder slidably received in the mounting bracket slot, the sight pin holder defining a sight pin slot. 4. The adjustable sight of claim 3 wherein the forward sight pin is substantially vertically adjustable in sliding relation to the sight pin slot and wherein the sight pin holder is substantially vertically adjustable in sliding relation to the mounting bracket slot. 5. The adjustable sight of claim 4 wherein the arm defines an arm aperture, the sight pin holder at least partially disposed in the arm aperture. 6. The adjustable sight of claim 1 wherein the forward sight pin is disposed in slot means for constraining movement of the forward sight pin within a substantially vertical linear path. 7. The adjustable sight of claim 1 comprising a forward sign pin guard and a rearward sight pin guard. 8. The adjustable sight of claim 7 wherein the rearward sight pin guard is dimensioned so that it aligns with the forward sight pin while the archer aims the bow. 9. The adjustable sight of claim 8 wherein the rearward sight pin guard substantially obscures the forward sight pin guard along an archer's sight line whereby the archer can confirm an initial alignment of the rearward sight pin and the forward sight pin along the sight line. 10. A bow sight comprising:a bracket adapted to mount to a bow;a first sight pin mounted in fixed relation to the bracket;a second sight pin coupled to the bracket and selectively movable in a first direction relative to the bracket and the bow by an archer aiming the bow toward a target, the second sight pin forward of the first sight pin in relation to the archer aiming the bow toward the target;a range scale that displays a range to the archer while aiming the bow toward the target; anda pointer adjacent the range scale that points to the range, wherein the pointer is coupled to the second sight pin and moves with the second sight pin in the first direction. 11. The bow sight of claim 10 comprising a trigger for moving the second sight pin in the first direction, the trigger actuated by the archer while aiming the bow toward a target. 12. The bow sight of claim 10 comprising a sight pin holder slidably mounted to the bracket. 13. The bow sight of claim 10 comprising a lever pivotally connected to the bracket and operatively connected to the second sight pin, the lever actuated by the archer while drawing the bow and aiming the bow toward a target. 14. The bow sight of claim 10 the first sign pin is immoveable in any direction relative to the bracket by the archer aiming the bow toward the target. 15. The bow sight of claim 11 wherein the pointer is adjustable in relation to the range scale so that the archer visually confirms the point er points to the range on the range scale while aiming the bow at a target. 16. A sight for a bow used by an archer comprising:a fixed sight element;a movable sight element disposed forward of the fixed sight element in relation to the archer;a range scale pointer coupled to the movable sight element;a range scale disposed near the range scale pointer; andan adjuster coupled to the movable sight element and the range scale pointer, the adjuster moving the moveable sight and the range scale pointer in the same direction, wherein the adjuster moves relative to the bow, wherein the adjuster is actuated by the archer while the bow is drawn so that the moveable sight element moves relative to the bow. 17. The sight of claim 16 wherein the fixed sight element, the moveable sight element, the range scale pointer and the range scale are simultaneously displayed in a sight line of the archer while the bow is drawn. 18. The sight of claim 16 wherein the movable sight pin and the range scale pointer are fixedly mounted relative to one another. 19. The sight of claim 16 comprising a first sight guard mounted adjacent the fixed sight element and a second sight guard mounted adjacent the movable sight element, the second sight guard dimension larger than the first, whereby the first and second sight element guards are of a same size in a sight line of the archer. 20. The sight of claim 16 wherein the movable sight pin and the range pointer are positioned a fixed distance away from one another and both move in the same direction when the adjustment means is actuated.
