As you move the pins in, seems like the gap would become larger. But then you would have to move them closer together to keep the same yardages for your pins. Is this correct?
That was correct but then you dwelled on it too long.

No. As you move you pins in the gap will get smaller. And the farther you move them away the bigger the gap. (I think, correct me if I'm wrong.)

Am I right on this?

AS you move the pins in toward the shooter the gap will appear to get larger to your eye which will cause you to have to move the bow more to get the pin on target so as you move to your next lower pin you will shoot higher and higher for each consecutive pin. The farther you move the pins away fromthe shooter the closer they will appear to get to each other andthe farther apart you will need the pin gaps to be in order to maintain the same yardages for the same pins.

OK, I may not know much, but I know that if you dont adjust the pins, which wasn't mentioned in question,that gap will get bigger as you move the sight ring in. The yardages will be off, but the gap wil appear bigger.

If you are adjusting the pins to where the yardages stay the same, you will have to then draw the pins closer to make the yardages equal again. Same yardages=smaller pin gap when sight ring is closer.
