Single or multi pin

[Joshk358]

Never have been a big fan of alot of pins in my sight window. I have a Spot Hogg slider with 2 pins. Works out to be 20yds on the top pin, 35 for the second. I'm able to cover everything out to 40yds with that. If I have time I can adjust to exact yardage.

3 pin set to 20 30 40 works for me, top pin slider to adjust out to ~90

A single pin can be fairly versatile, but you have to do a little work to know how it can work for you. There certainly is a mental confidence that says "i have pin for each of these yardages" But there is a sweet spot where you can set your pin and never have to slide it till your target is a good way away. Unless your bow is like sub 250 fps, if you set your pin for ~40 yards you can leave it there and aim a little high or a little low. You'll want to shoot 5 yard increments without adjusting the pin you'll start getting an idea of where your arrow is gonna hit. Once you've shot yardage of 20-50 yards you can just keep yourself on mental notes of where your pin needs to sit on the target

^Agree with this

Multiple elk, hog and deer kills. Over the years I've adjusted my single pin in a hunting situation exactly one time.
For me the advantages of the single pin far outweigh the alternatives.

(I only shot traditional until my 60's then bought my first compound and knew the multi-horizontal pin sight was not for me. I attribute it to hunting as a child and teen with an iron sight .22 and 30/30)

I run an option8 with 3 fixed pins and one slider, it swings out so you hav the option of using the site as single pin which is cool for tighter spots. This set up is my favorite and I've tried singles, 5pins, etc. The only other setup I'd be interested in trying is the 2 pin vertical slider where you they would land at roughly 20/34 locked which would cover the vast majority of my whitetail hunting. and give you a little more space between the 20/30.
