How many pins are on your sight?
I' ve been reading lots of post about sights and low light problems. I switched to a single 20 yard sight a while back and find that it coveres all my shooting needs. When shooting less than 20 yards I know that I have to shoot low. When shooting longer that 20 yards I have to shoot high. From the amout I shoot I just know where to put my pin and am very accurate. My question is this, Am I the only one who shoots with just one pin? If so, How many pins do you have on your bow and at what distances are they sighted in at? I shoot 60# and carbon arrows so my trajectory is very flat out to 30 yards. I has worked for me and I can see better at low light. I' m just curious how you all set up? Thanks for the input....

I guess I should have also asked, If you shoot just one pin do you have problems with low light? If it' s questionable I don' t shoot but I find that I get a few extra minutes after the suns goes.

I shoot 3 pin, but I' ve thought of the single pin, just didn' t have enough time to practice before season started. I have those one' s that are supposed to suck up all available light and be good till the last drop of light is gone. They work pretty well so far as I' ve been able to tell. If I went to single pin I' d go for the same type of pin, or I could just take out the extra 2 that I have now. The green and yellow are the easiest to see late at night, the red is not so good. The yellow, however, is even better than the green.

I shoot a one pin adjustable hha optimizer, it actually has a light on it that lights the end of the fiber optic pin and makes a real nice soft light, no glow to contend with,,, it really works nice. as far as the adjustable goes, well i dont have a touchmaster on it, thats one thing i liked about my old sightmaster was the touchmaster that would let you move your sight at full draw,, i miss that but i do like this sight and i shoot a lot like you guys i just aim high or low depending on the situation....
