A lot depends on the type of hunting you do. Pendulums in my experience really let you hit exactly where you want from in tight(5yds) out to the max distance your bow will allow. (25-30+ yds) Proper form, and fixed pins out of a treestand are easily adjusted for, make sure you shoot at varying yards, as you could be off a few inches as you move out. For most that's not an issue but it is nice to know exactly where things hit.
