Just curious how everyone's pins are set... I got my new 5 pin sight in the mail on Thursday. Removed 1 pin and cut the fiber off since I wanted a 4 pin.
Set at 20, 30, 40, & 50. Gonna see how high my 30 pin in at 20 and may switch up to 30-60.

I normally like a three pin sight. My old bow was 20, 30, and 40. My new bow has a fixed three pin and one floater pin. It's set at 30, 40, 50, and 60. My 60 pin can be moved to shoot farther my turning a knob, but haven't set it past 60 yet.


83% of all statistics are made up.

the newer bows are so fast that most can shoot 25-30 on a single pin, no need for a 20 yard pin. I have my fixed pin on 25 and my floater set 30-60. I use the G5 XR2.

I like my 20... I'm still wanting my less than 10yd bull shot like a hunting buddy had last year, 7yds.

You guys are some dead ringers with steady hands apparently. Just say 25. The difference in two yards at those distances are less than the width of the arrow shaft at modern compound speeds. Ya'll shoot out of a vice? Or maybe I drink too much caffeine.

30, 35, 40, and 45. 10-25 yards I aim 3" low. That's where 90% of my shots are anyway.
