Default Target distance

Been hunting the whitetail since birth, but just this season have discovered bowhunting. I've been putting in the time with the target...shooting every other day or so, shooting a matthews feathermax with a ranger sightwith 1 pin(ranges from 20 to 70 yds). Question is I've been shooting almost entirely at 20 yds - moved to 15, without moving pin or range setting. Sight is still on target. Backed up to 25 and on target. Is this normal to have very little difference in a 15 and 25 yd shot?

Default RE: Target distance

yes with today's faster bows, its easy/common to not have much difference between 15 and 25 yds.
