this should help any minor issues with sight height; otherwise, it is your anchor point/peep height, and in this case the peep would have to move up in order to get your sight to move up.
Agreed this is your first step...

Second looking at the picture...your pins can rise a good half inch in the main sight ring housing itself...

simple fix...if pins are set cut out a piece of stiff paper insert in ring and mark pins...move 20 yard pin up in sight ring 1/2 inch and with pin marked paper move rest of pins to match on 20 pin...that will give you a huge margin right there...

Another factor is how you are achoring...some anchor way too high...
measure from your nocking point...under top loop nock where arrow nock sits ...and measure OC [on center] to peep....what is that measurement...most are in that 5 1/4 to 5 1/2 measurement with proper draw and anchor...[of course varies from shooter to shooter]

A few easy fixes..if all is good your sight ring should be near center on sight bar with lots of play for pins...
