Default 1 Pin to 30 yds results

Since there seem to be many threads on how many pins to use hunting I figured I would post what my " moderate speed bow does" .

This is the way I have been hunting for about 8 yrs now. I use this one pin set dead on at about 26 yds. I can without compensating keep my groups within a 6" circle from 5 to about 33 yds. I compensate a little high for 35 yds. I also have a second pin set at 40yds, and this is as far as I will shoot (hunting)

This is from a 68 lb Bowtech patriot sc, 29" draw shooting 28.25" gold tip xt' s and 75 grn heads flying at 280 - 285 fps.

The target has 4" circles so at 15 yds I am about 2.5" high and at 30 yds I am about 2" low.

IMO this is a great way to set up for hunting with any bow shooting over 260 fps.

Simple and effective, just takes a little practice to " know" what your bow does.
