i am shooting a 60# PSE Nova and i am wondering where everyone sets there pins to as in yardage and what you would think i should put mine at

20
30
40
Unless you can shoot farther.

It depends on what your going to do with it. I hunt with mine and 99.9% of the time it's from a tree. So, I climb up in one and shoot as I would in that situation. Most of my shots are 20 yrds. or less. The first pin is for close shots out to 25. The next takes it out to 40 and then fifty. I know what shots I think I might have to take and one is at 45. In a tree most are close if you like to hunt in the thick stuff as I do. It's where the deer like to be.

If this is your first season hunting deer I'd suggest just setting one pin at 20 yards.....keep it simple. If this is your first season make it simple and get a few deer under your belt. Its amazing how many things can go wrongand how much more difficult it isafter 30 yards.

Good Luck!

10 , 20 , 30 40 yards

I agree with one pin set at 20 yards for now.Most hunting shots are about 20 yards anyway, and often less.

Then during the off season do a lot of longer range shooting getting your form down and your confidence up. Then maybe you'll be able to use a 30 yard pin with greater confidence. Frankly, that's why there are about 8-9 months of the year without a deer season, depending on where you live.

With just about any bow today you don't need a 10 yard pin. Shooting a 20 yard pin at 10 yards should only put the arrow about 1 1/2" high, or less depending on the arrow speed. All a 10 yard pin does is clutter up the sight picture and lead to confusion.

I shoot a 10 yd pin along with a 20, 30 and 40. I agree the first set up should only be out to 20 yds.. I use a 10 yd. pin because I have deer coming in at 11-12 yds. which produces a severe angle at times and I feel I need to bepretty precise in my shot.I shoot a pretty heavy arrow (451grs.@218fps.)and get a lot of drop between 10 and 20yds.

20, 30, 40....

I have both of my bows set up with 20,30,40,45,50.
I like the longer distance pins to practice with. Where I hunt, I probably wouldnt get a shot over 35 yds.

id let yourself be the judge of that. every bow shoots a little diffrent. slower bows will have a bigger pin gap..or use more pins etc.

the main thing is to think about how far YOU feel comfortable. then set pins accordingly. some guys use 1 pin set for 25yds or so. if its closer aim a tad low..farther aim a tad high. some guys use as many pins as they can. this is only my first year but my shooting at 35yds is pretty dang good(not trying to brag..i practiced my butt off this passed month) i can shoot out to 40yds in my backyard, and practice out to 40yds. i decided to set my pins at 15,25, and 35yds. i have 2 more pins not in use as of now. by next year ill have 45 and 55 set. will i ever shot that far for hunting? no..dont plan to. but when your shooting that far 25 and 35yds will seem like its 10yds. you get good groups at 50yds your going to have GREAT groups at normal ranges. another thing it would be nice to have those pins set "incase of an emergency"..take my buddy for instance. hit a buck but his arrow hit the ole "invisible" branch..he seen the arrow in the gut..the buck ran to 40yds or so..stopped..looked at the arrow..bite it and pulled it it out or bit through it..he swears by that. he didnt shoot again because he never shot that far and didnt even know where to start. im a situation like that i would definently try to make the shot. under normal hunting i dont plan to shoot passed 35yds. thats my comfort zone. but i wont do it if its not 100% clear..the deer is calm as well as the wind. its all upto you and your shooting and comfort..
