Default RE: arrow trajectory?

You know, just trying to visualize arrow trajectories and points of impact at different heights and distances it seems to me that:

if you're 20 feet up and the deer is20yards out, your 20 yard pin will hit dead on. If that deer is only 10 yards out, you must use your 30 yard pin for it to hit dead on. And if it's at the base of the tree, you'd have to use your 40 yard pin even though the deer isn't 40 yards away. I don't know how to explain it but it's all in arrow path versus sight path... kinda like sighting in a rifle.

Please confirm or correct... thanks.
