One of my buddies just got a new sight on his bow. It has only three pins, and there is not enough room between the pins to have a 20 yard and a30 yard pin. When sighted in at 20 with the top pin, and the 2nd pin moved as close as possible to the top one; the 2nd pin is about right on for 37 yards.

I'm thinking maybe the best way to set this one up is to zero the pins for 30, 40, and 50. When shooting at 20 yards, the arrowhits only a couple of inches high when holding the 30 yard (top)pin on the 20 yard target.

The other alternative would, of course, be 20-40-50.

Any ideas on this one? BTW - this is western big game hunting, where distances can sometimes stretch out there a little.

15 30 50 might do the job. Since 20 30 didn't work I doubt 30 40 would either.

How about 22 and 35? I'm thinking that would be pretty darn close.....With that set up, he could use his 20 yard pin all the way to 30 and only be an inch, inch and a half low at 30......He could then use his 35 for anything from 30-40.......Then set a 45 yard pin....

20-40-60?

or 15-35-55?

that must be a very fast bow.......has he tried to down size on the pin size? i had the problem when i got a 3 pin sight they were .4...huge pins...went to a .29 for 20yrds and then .19 for 30 etc.....if only 3 pins i like the idea of 20, 40 ,60....then for a 30 yard shot it would just be between the 20-40 and for 50 yards between 40-60..

I would just get a new sight... that would bug the crap out of me
