Claim 13:
14. A sight for an archery bow, comprising:
a. a base configured to be mounted to an archery bow;
b. a housing connected to the base;
c. a sight cover defining a sight window mounted to the housing, wherein the sight cover is vertically adjustable relative to the housing;
d. a sight point mounted within the sight window;
e. wherein a first known height of the sight point relative to the housing is calibrated to a first known target distance;
f. wherein a second known height of the sight point relative to the housing is calibrated to a second known target distance;
g. a control knob with a control shaft extending horizontally through and rotatably coupled to the housing and operatively coupled to a bracket arrangement, wherein rotation of the control knob and control shaft vertically adjusts a height of the sight cover and the sight point relative to the housing; and
h. an electronic module mounted to the housing, the electronic module having a display and at least one sensor to measure angular rotation of the control shaft;
i. the electronic module including a processor and a memory with programming, wherein the processor and programming use the measured angular rotation of the control shaft to calculate a height of the adjusted sight point relative to the first known height and the second known height, and wherein the electronic module then displays a calculated target distance corresponding to the adjusted sight point height.
