How many pins do you use
 
I started with one pin and am now up to three. How many do You use and at what range? Mine are 10 25 35.

I have four 10,20,30,40, that way if it is 25 I just split the difference between 20& 30. I ve been eyeing up the flatliner extreme so it probably wont be to long before I have 5.

I like one pin for hunting, any more than that and I get confused. I set it for around 27 yards wich give me good shooting out to 35 or so.

I also started with one pin, set at 20 yards but recently went to three more for 3-D shooting than hunting because I haven't used anything but my 20 yard pin except one 30 yard shot. All have been inside 18 yards. The three are set at 20, 30, and 40 but only use the 20 and 30 for hunting.

One pin on a slider sight. After many years of 3-d shooting, if I see more than one pin, I go into a mental meltdown!

3 pins here as well........20-30-40
They're close but I like precision.

RE: How many pins do you use
 
Same as Matt, but probably not AS close. I'm not shooting a rifle like he is. <img src=icon_smile_wink.gif border=0 align=middle><img src=icon_smile_big.gif border=0 align=middle>

I use one pin. Years ago when I used 4 pins I looked at the wrong pin once and sailed a shot right over a beautiful 8pt bucks back.

2 pins. 20 & 30

3-4 pins set at 20,40,60 and sometimes 80 yds. the reason for this being that with my present sight I cannot get my pins close enough to do 10 yd. difference when the blocks touch that gives me a 20 yd. gap. So that is my answer. And yes I feel comfortable shooting deer at all those ranges.

RE: How many pins do you use
 
i use 4 20,30,40,50 i would never shoot a deer at 50 though

20, 30, and 40 yard pin for hunting. To this day, I've never used the 40 in these Georgia woods.

PABowhntr 01-14-2002 05:30 PM

RE: How many pins do you use
 
At the moment 3...20, 30 and 40...but I might just switch to one that would be set for 25 yards to make things simpler.
