So I have my pins set at 20yd 30yd and 40yds, what do all of you have your pins set too? I can successfully make shots way out(made a 100 with a friends bow who has a 100 pin for practice), and I was thinking about maybe throwing on a 50 and 60 but im not sure.

I have a 5 pin sight set at 30, 40, 50, 60, 70. I started at 30 because with my bow sighted in at 20 it was only 2 inches low at 30 so I went up to 30 first pin.

30, 45, 60. If I'm shooting a 5 pin I add a 15 and 70.

Same as sirfunk but mine are the horizontal pins. I have never shot the verticals but it kind of looks like the vertical posts would cover some of the target. Just seems a little different to me, I'm sure it is like anything and just takes a little getting used to. Mike

I got a trophy ridge too and it has verticals and I dunno, I kinda like the thought of horizontals more cause that way you can shoot when it gets kinda darker too(coyotes, coons, etc.)

Another trophy ridge guy here. I have 2O 3O 4O 5O 6O 7O 8O 9O. The only beef I have with them is they don't make the .O1O pins.
