blackpowderfever...WELCOME to MAUSER's geometry class....if you shoot a 20yd shot for 25 out of a tree stand you will never hit where you want unless its on accident!

A^2+B^2=C^2

in your scenero, A=15' stand (height)B=60' (20yds is 60 feet...3 feet in a yard...)

c^2=3825

square root of 3825 = 61.8465 feet

61.8465/3 = 20.6155


NOT 25....you will be over shooting by 4.4yds...

you WILL see more of a difference of impact by using your 25yd pin over your 20yd pin...

within normal bow hunting yardages and normal stand heights, your gunna be within a yard or 2 if you shoot for the distance from the base of the tree to the target.....

no way to argue or disagree...if your shooting 20yds for 25 from a stand and your hitting where you want, you need your bow and eyes checked out....

not picking on you...not being "mean" or anything...just simply informing and educating....hopefully this helps you....

if you dont believe it learn about it.... "pythagorean theorem" pretty straight forward stuff....

yep you got the right idea...but within normal bowhunting distances and stand heights, you always shoot for the the yardage from the base of the tree to the target...bend at the waist, float your pin, release, follow through...get down...follow the red bubbly path to your trophy....
