Keeping that focus on the gold is the key. Actual use of the sight is somewhat secondary. You can hit things without having to use sights - ask any barebow archer, or try throwing a ball at something, or watch a darts player - no sights needed but he can get wonderful accuracy and consistency by looking hard at where the 'arrow' is going to go and letting his body work out the whys and wherefores.
I have long held that it is possible to 'think' your arrows into the gold, even from what felt like a poor loose, but the concentration on that important bit of the target was there - or is it just telekinetcs?
