Default Sight and Pins

Guys,
What kind of sights do you guys have? Do you have 3 pin or 5 pin and what distances do you guys have them set at? Also does the tru glo sights work well? Thanks Matt

I use a Tru Glo sight. Its a 4 pin but I only have 3 of them sighted. They are at 15, 25, and 35 yards. I love the Tru Glo sight, Its bright and last until the last possible minute. I also have a light that I can turn on but have never used it hunting cause Im not sure whether it was legal or not. Never really read into it. But if you plan on using a Tru Glo I would recommend it.

I use the Impact Archery Collector 3 pin. They are set for 20,30,and 40. It's a really bright sight. It's almost distracting, like someone's shining a light into your eye. I believe I paid around $60 for it a few months ago. You can check them out at impactarchery.com.

Right now I use a 3 pin Cobra sight that was really cheap. I'm planning on upgrading next year to a trophy ridge. I'll probably stick with a 3 pin sight, I set the pins to 20,30 and 45 yards (only cause I can't get the pins closer together). The new sight will probably be set 20,30 and 40 yards, just depends on where I feel comfortable and can hit accuratley practicing.

I have a monatana gold dusk devil with 4 pins. they are set at 10 and 20, and as soon as i get out of iraq it will be 30 and 40. To be honest the bow is shooting so close, the pins are almost touching, but they are flat and can butt right up against each other, just say that I dont see a need for a 5th pin, because personally I wont shoot more than 40 yards, if i go to shooting 50, might as well use a muzzleloader or rifle. But again that is me!
