    ok i have been shooting my new bow... my old bow is slow, old, and just old and set at #60. im having a hard time with sighting the new bow in, carnivore #70. ive been having a hard adjusting to my true draw length 28.5, where i was shooting 30 inch draw. i have spent the last month just shooting and getting comfortable.

    once i started sighting in my pin was a little high at 20, 2 inches or so, so i just wanted to see what it did at 30 and it was just about where it should be, which is cool.... but my issue comes at setting the pins..... there will be no yardage gap and i could probaly use that pin from 20 to 30 yards. so do i set the top pin at 25 for a middle range and go from there or get it zeroed in at 20 and just set the at yardages as needed when the arrow begins to fall??.... i want to keep it simple so i dont have to think.

    my old bow was easy becuase i shot heavy arrows and a slow bow, sighting in was not a big problem.

    Keep it simple and go with a single pin sight. Just a thought.
