For me.... if it is bright outside (mid day), brightest to least is red, green, yellow. At dusk, its yellow, red, green. You'll have to test for yourself.

I agree with everyone else. Red is the first color to go away in low light. Green is the brightest to my eye, with yellow next. I'd have green for the 20. Yellow for the 30 and red for 40. You don't want to be shooting 40 yards in low light anyway, so it doesn't matter if you can't see the pin. Right?

If I were in your shoes, I'd go to the archery shop and see if there are straight replacement pins for that sight. If not, I'd buy another sight that lets ME choose what color pins go where.

Yea, I don't know why sight manufactures don't get it. I see sights all the time where the red is the second one down. It should always be the last, as it is the first to go. Probabely won't see a deer if it is 40 yards away in low light anyway. So I like mine to be Green, Green, and Green. I have to put in my own fiber to get that though. Next is Green Yellow yellow. I don't ever put in red..

if i buy another sight it will be a single pin adjustable sight. but for now i will sight my bow in with red on top and yellow next and then see how much space between the sights and if there is enough space to change, i will take the green and put it where the red is and then the yellow should not need 2 b moved
