well here is how I see it. if I double the distance from full draw peep to sight pin I will see the pins dot as half the size it was. smaller pin + farther away = more aiming mistakes which should make you a better shot at long range. it will make the pins look smaller and they will cover up less of the target allowing for a more precisely aimed shot. if your sight pins cover up the whole vitals on a 3d deer target at 40 yds. how could you be shure you even had the pin on target at 50+??? now comp. shooters have sights that stick out feet from the riser I dont think i need that much but I dont want it hugging the riser either. the middle ground is hard to find some times.
