Thanks to everyone. I think I'm going to get a Tru-Glo Ultra Extreme 3-pin with the yardages set at 20,30,40.
Good choice.
I use 2 pins for hunting and practicing. The 1st pinis goodfor 0-32 yds. The 2nd pinis for 30-40 yds. which most of the time I probably wouldn't even use except for practicing.
Don't mean to sound judgemental but I feel 28 to 30 yds. is the limit. That might even be a little to far. I practice out to 40 - 45 yards but it is sort of like shooting pool. After you feel confident about making long shots the shorter ones are much easier. Like many others have said, there are to many variables at distances over 30 yds. By the time (reaction time) you decide to pull the trigger, and the arrow reaches its destination, the deer or any other animal could take a step or for that matter even have time tolay down. You may have hit the bulls eye when shooting at a target bagbut this target just moved. Not for very good shot placement.
If this sight is for hunting only get the 3 pin and you can always take one out if you want to. That's what I did.
