CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS [0001] Not Applicable STATEMENT REGARDING FEDERALLY SPONSORED RESEARCH OR DEVELOPMENT [0002] Not Applicable REFERENCE TO SEQUENCE LISTING, A TABLE, OR A COMPUTER PROGRAM LISTING COMPACT DISK APPENDIX [0003] Not Applicable BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION [0004] 1. Field of the Invention [0005] The invention relates to bow sights. [0006] Much of the Prior Art of bow sighting involves many elements to constitute a sighting device. One of the elements is a front sight body containing sight pins with different apertures. These pins mount and are adjustable by manipulating two nuts on threaded holder which changes and locks their position to the front sight body. This device generally contains multiple pins or posts allowing for sight settings of differing ranges. They are delicate and fragile and require a protective shield. This paraphernalia clutters the sight window. [0007] Another element is a rear sight consisting of a peep sight entwined with the bowstring or a similar device attached to the bowstring. A rubber tube is attached to the bow riser and to the peep sight body. The purpose of this arm and rubber tube is to cause the peep sight hole to align so that it may be sighted through at full draw. [0008] Other elements are: a lip button which is mounted to the bowstring to allow the shooter to come to the same anchor point when the string is released. Forward counter weights called stabilizers are sometimes mounted on the bow body for stabilization which assist is sighting accuracy. The inclusion of all these devices demonstrate the difficulty of the Prior Art of sighting. Bow sights, which do not place the rear sight on the bowstring, mount the entire sight on the riser. One example is a scope sight which is aligned by looking through the scope and locating one of the dots or crosshairs and aligning them on the desired target. Scopes and mounts are heavy and expensive and are not allowed in Open Sight Competition. [0009] 2. Description of the Related Art [0010] Lorocco presents a sighting device for guns which is mounted on the barrel and a scope type sight for archery equipment in U.S. Pat. No. 5,638,604 Jun. 17, 1997. Lorocco makes no provision for adaptation of the barrel mounted sight to archery equipment. He even states that for archery equipment, a scope sight is used. [0011] Deien introduces a compound bow rifle sight system with Pat. Application Ser. No. 2004/0088872A1 May 13, 2004; however, the rear V-type rifle sight introduced is an add on unit which requires a separately mounted front sight which is of the multiple pin type in which multiple pins are used for different yardages. The almost unlimited view defined would only apply to unlimited when the shortest range pin was used. All other range sightings would have one or several pins protruding above the top surface of the rear V sight as the uppermost front pin represents the shortest distance. The view would also be restricted by the protective cover that pin type sights require due to their fragile construction. All range selections would depend on a multiple pin front sight which can cause confusion of selecting ranges and obstruction of the sight field. [0012] McNeel describes an archery bow sight with U.S. Pat. No. 3,058,221 Aug. 15, 1960 which has either a peep or pin rear sight and a multi-lined front sight. The pin sight on the rear creates a problem. The closer that pin is to the eye, the larger the portion of the target it hides from view and this would hamper pin point aiming. The peep sight causes somewhat similar problems in that the closer the peep is to the eye, the smaller the peep hole needs to be for accurate aiming and the smaller the hole, the more difficult the front aperture is to locate for aiming. The multi-pin front aperture introduces the potential for confusion and certainly a restricted field of view in the sight picture. [0013] Hanson describes a bow sight in U.S. Pat. No. 03,063,151 Nov. 13, 1962. Hanson's designed sight is capable of almost any adjustment with time and tools being the limiting factor. Hanson's design does not provide multiple sight range selections to be quickly selected which are range features needed in hunting situations and desirable in any kind of shooting. [0014] Kenny, Nelson describes an adjustable bow sight in U.S. Pat. No. 5,718,215 Feb. 17, 1998. It has gears to potentially malfunction, or become jammed with woodland debris or develop mechanical problems or freeze in snow or ice or wear out. The necessity to focus one's attention on the range setting lever and selector marks to change the range settings and the expense of construction should cause this sight to fail the advantages of the invention, without consideration of wind reading and range estimation provision of the invention. Also, this sight could only be used on a right handed bow. [0015] Kalmbach describes a sighting device for archery bows in U.S. Pat. No. 4,159,575 Jul. 3, 1979. Kalmbach's sight presents a disc rear sight with multiple peep apertures, selectable to present multiple peep holes which represent different ranges to be rotated into a position for use. The front sight is a vertical pin U.S. Pat. No. 5,201,124 adjusted by selecting a proper alignment hole and threading it to the proper height. The peep hole type sight presents sight and alignment problems due to impaired vision. The front bead must be aligned perfectly centered in the rear peep hole. This is difficult and tedious. If the bow moves the least, the entire sight picture can be lost. [0016] Sprandel describes an archery sight and range finder in U.S. Pat. No. 3,666,368 May 30, 1972. This device brackets the target and sights with a center reference point provided on one of the bracketing sight bars. It has a pivoting finger slot with which to accomplish the range and sight adjustment. This sight requires many functions to work. Assuming nothing jams and everything works, a steady finger is required while the same hand must hold and steady a bow while under the pressure of the bow's forty pounds plus of pull pressure. The target must be completely visible in order to be bracketed. This device is extremely complicated with many potential disappointing outcomes. The longevity of this device is certainly limited. [0017] Kocur describes a coordinated bow sight and range finder in U.S. Pat. No. 2,767,472 Oct. 23, 1956. Kocur offers a front multiple pin type sight with adjustable front pins in which screws are used as the pins and the heads of the screws are used as the sight beads. The range finder is described as an adjustable upper and lower span whereby the lower span is aligned horizontally at the feet of the intended target while the bow is held at arm's length in shooting position. The upper span is then slid up or down in order to align it horizontally on the back of the animal. The pointer will designate the distance on the range scale which is either marked in yardages or color codes to match with the pins on the front sight. This range finder is tedious and requires one's full attention during manipulation. Kocur's sight does not provide an unrestricted sight picture. Confusion and error are definitely a threat in usage. BRIEF SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION [0018] After much research and study of the Prior Art devices, the present invention has been developed by building and testing prototypes to provide a bow sight which contains all components of a bow sight in one unit. As a result, this one unit sight provides: [0019] A. An unobstructed sight picture, visible and distinct; Continue reading about Wheel blade sight...
