I agree with most but mostly with VBM. With the speed of most bows today there is virtually no reason for a 10 yard pin. So I set my first one at 20 yards. Actually I just changed to a lighter arrow and had to do things a bit different. I had my pins set for 22, 29, 36 yards but they were so close that I could not gap at all between them. I was forced to just put 3 pins on and shoot. So now I' m set for 25, 35 and 45. This is a bit better, but now I have too many pins. The 25 I can use out to 30 yards with only about 2.5" drop and only an inch high at 20 yards. And while we' re on the subject a lot depends onhow far the pins are from the riser. The farther from the riser the longer the sight radius, thus spreading the pins more. I like having pins set for longer ranges like 50 and 60 yards for practice (makes the short shots gimme' s). Ah, then hunting season nears and I change the sight (I always have two) and use a sigle pin set for 25 yards. That allows me to shoot a middle of the chest hold (on deer) out to 30 yards. I' ve found this just as accurate as a pendelum sight without all the muss and fuss of having moving parts.
