I'm sure I could gap shoot 10 yard spaces, but why bother when I have the pins. It's easy enough. Works for me.

The 50 and 60 yard pins are just for practice (I sometimes practice at 70 yards). During the hunting season, those pins are just for decoration.

It's a 62 yd shot from the corner of my back patio to the lg mcKenzie - by our grapevines.

I practice a lot from 50 and 60 yds......but I'd never take a shot at a deer from that distance.

60 is for practice. Sure makes a 25 yard shot look awfully close especially if you use a 3D target for practice, which is the whole point. Plus it is a lot of fun to shoot that far I think, and it makes you shoot properly or it is all over the place.

I have 5 pin's and I set them for 20,30,40,50,and 60yrds. I don't do a whole lot of shooting at 60yrds ,but I do up to 50.
