Default best way to shoot new bow - sight it in

well, I am finally ready to shhot the new bow (got my arrows the other day. just wanted to get some opinions on how to go about getting it sighted in. (I shot the bow 2x when i first got it and didn't hit the target at 20 yds - did manage to bounce one off the ground, off a tree and into a tre about 40 yards down range!)
my idea is to take 2 pins out (5 pins total) and use only 3 (15 yd, 20 yd, 30 yd ??)
then take the middle pin and shoot at 8 yards (spose to be the same as 20 yds)
then adjust from there
this sound right? how do I dial in the 30 yard pin??

thanks in advance

(think i'll post this in the tech board as well)
