Default Is this possible?

Hi all - I am have been thinking about this question for a while now and I thought I would post it to you gurus who have a lot more expereince than me. I am currently shooting a Hoyt Vulcan at 73#'s at a speed of 284-285fps. I am using a G5 sight (3-pin plus 1 floating pin) and the way I have my pins set up are as follows: 30yrds, 40yrds, 50yrds, and 60yrds (with the last pin being my floater and it is at 60 when it is clicked all the way up). My question is when I shoot at a target at 18-20yrds with my 30yrd pin my arrows hit right where they are pointed at (assuming the operator doesn't punch the trigger or something). What I am asking is should I see the arrows hitting higher because they are getting to the target quicker on the arc or is it that my bow is able to shoot and hit at the samesame or really close out to 30 yards? I know if I try to do this out to 40 yards my arrows drop about 4-5" I would ideally like to have a 30 yardpin that I can also feel confident in hitting targets that are closer to 20 yards and I guess I want to know if this is possible.

Thanks.
