I shoot with 5 pins.......20,30,40,50 & 60 yards......Most of the deer I get to shoot at are from 10 to 25 yards and therefore could probabably get by with " Two" , my 20 & 30 yard pins.........But due to sometimes shooting at a 3 yard and 5 yard target, I have to use my 40 and 30 yard pin respectivly.....So with this light shed, the minimum number of pins I would try is " Three" , my 20,30 and 40 yard pins..

.....A 3 Yard target requires the use of my 40 yard pin........
.....A 5 Yard target requires the use of my 30 yard pin........
.....A 10 yard target requires the use of my 20 yard pin (shoots 2" high)
.....A 20 yard target requires my 20 yard pin and shoots dead on
.....A 30 yard target requires my 30 yard pin.......
......I don' t feel comfortable trying a shot at a deer past 30 yards!!!!!!!!!

Hope I' ve not confused you!!!!!!
