1 pin for me. Didnt like the confusion of multiple pins at the moment of truth. I guess I cant drive and drink coffee at the same time.

My G-5 ME has 4 pins, that's why. I used to shoot with 7. I practice all summer with them. Why change for the hunting situation?

One pin for me. Where I live and hunt now is thick and most all my shots are under 25 yards so no need for another pin. If and when i move back out west I will either have more or another adjustable sight.

Just 1 pin as of 4 years ago.
I used to have a 20 yard and a 30 yard pin.
I changed after I used the wrong pin on a nice 8-pointer in the heat of the moment.
Fortunately, the deer came back for a second shot 5 minutes later and I got him.
I also spend more time using my range finder (now that I have one), instead of pacing off my yardage.
This gets an accurate shotting distance to know where to hold the pin on the deer.
Also the later technology bows with higher speeds, helps to flatten out your shotting distance.
Thankfully, I have yet to have another problem since.
