I'll start by saying it's pretty sad when anyone posts facts thru research and still has to worry about attacks by others who may think that they have to defend themselves because they choose what type of setup they choose!<img src=icon_smile_dissapprove.gif border=0 align=middle> I consider this place an electronic campfire where we can discuss and debate anything to do with bowhunting. We should be able to do it without the insults. We all have our different setup beliefs and when somebody else posts something in contrary to our beliefs , we shouldn't take it personal.

I've shot setups like you mentioned in your post and they were pretty close to your results. I have a buddy that uses the 1 pin setup and he's shooting 303 fps. Yes , he does have to hold 3" low at most shots (15yds and under) , but his problem is guessing yardage past 20 yds and that is where his speed benefit comes in. He knows at 30yds he will hit exactly 1" low , 20yds dead on. He's the one that doesn't have a problem guessing the close stuff and spray paints marks on trees at 30yds.
I hope I haven't come across as being a smart allick towards anyone. I see the point Arthur was trying to make , but I also knew how others were going to see it and with my first post , my intentions were to point that out to Arthur. I just think he could have worded it better!<img src=icon_smile_wink.gif border=0 align=middle>
For the record<img src=icon_smile_big.gif border=0 align=middle> I shoot a 3pin setup with moderate speed and lots of wollop.

When you do your testing , try and zero in at different yardages and see the different results as to where you hit at 10yd - 30yds.
The reason I say this is , a couple years ago , I was shooting and sighting in at the farm where I hunt (this is when I was a speed freak) and I just walked off a distance that looked close to 20yds , but I never paced it. When all was done , I was shooting 1" high at 10yds and 1" low at 30yds at the range. I was shooting a 350gn arrow at 301fps. I'm not making this up and I'm not on drugs
I think there must be a sweet spot when trying to sight in a fast one pin setup , try at differnt ranges and see if your zero is closer from 10 - 30 yds.
If not , I guess it could have been drug flashbacks from my youth<img src=icon_smile_blush.gif border=0 align=middle>
