CG, I understand what you are sayng about a 2" drop between 20 and 30 yards with YOUR setup. Heck, the pins would probably be too close together anyway. But not everyone who shoots only has a 2" drop.

Heck, I use three pins and still have to adjust slightly for in between shots.

For a long time, my pinswere at 15 and 30 with a 3rd one below them for decoration! This year, with my better and faster new bow, I' ll have pins set for 20, 40 and 60 yards. The 60 yard pin will be for practice only.

Well it looks as though there are several schools of thought on this, everyone should use what they are comfortable with. I shot 4 pins for years and decided last season to try one pin, I was far more accurate and confident than I had been with the four. It took a good bit of practice to know how high or low to hold, but I have to say within a week it became natural at any distance to know how high or low to hold. This was with my old bow (20+ years) which was slow as mollasses, my new bow is fast beyond beleif in comparison as a result there is a lot less adjusting to do at different yardages. As with types of bows, sights are the same, different strokes for different folks.

The real secret to the whole 9 yards is confidence and practice, whether you shoot 1 pin or 20, if you have not practiced enough, or you are not confident you have lost the battle.

I used to shoot a multi pin sight but after shooting 3-d with a single pin I switched to a single pin. I have a moveable sight on my bow and have 1 mark for 0-25 yards and another for 25-40 yards. Most of my stands are setup to where I can set my sights at one or the other and work out just perfectly. Afetr shooting the one pin setup, the multi pin was just downright confusing, too much to think about. With one pin, just put it in the center of the kill zone and pick a hair.
