In this video you'll see what happens when you shoot in 5 yard increments from 5 to 40 yards while aiming at the same spot with your 20 yard pin. You just might re-consider how you have your bow sight set up.

How to Space Your Sight Pins
I came across this video while reading a thread in a forum the other day. I have my bow set up with four pins on my sight set at 20, 30, 40 and 50 yards. The furthest shot I've ever taken at a deer was 45 yards and most of my shots are within 20 yards. So do you really need all those pins? It does get confusing sometimes, I once missed a deer at 25 yards because I put my 40 yard pin on him - I still don't know why I did that, but it happened and I missed.

Very cool post Marc, kinda makes you think about trajectory.
