That’s very interesting. You can do the same thing if you measure your center arrow shaft to center peep height at full draw, get the arrow speed at 36” in front of the rest with a chrono, and accurate arrow weight. From there just plug the data into a ballistic calculator (my Luepold range finder has one built in) that you can find on the internet. A nice graph results that will show you the exact arc of your arrow. By the way, the reason you’ll hold dead on at short range is that the arc intersects the aim point at two different yardages, one as it passed up from the rest through the aim point, and another as it descends from the arc of flight and intersects the aim point. The graph described will show you both, or you can just find it by shooting at various yardages using your pin, stepping out one yard at a time from 8, until you have a perfect aim point shot. Keep stepping and you’ll map the curve right on your target. It is worth noting that as you point out you are 4.5 inches high at 20, and that might be the peak of your arc, so at 14 you might be only 2” high and at 25 only 2” high. If you want to make target accurate shots on deer, there is a lot to know in advance (this data plus the ranges of landmarks around your stand) and a lot to think about all while your adrenaline is haywire and a deer is marching by.

Like others have already stated, I've used a single fixed vertical pin (or crosshair) for 30+ years. I have never owned a slider sight or multiple pins. When crunch time comes, I believe in keeping things simple. I become a better shooter when my instincts take over. Deer (& turkeys) are unpredictable. This past week, I have been trying something new. I am shooting an EZ V sight for the first time, but I customized it to having one set of tick marks @ 20 yards. Now, I am shooting like my single fixed pin, but with the added benefit of using the V to help guide me with longer shots. If you like to kill targets, I suggest using a rangefinder & pins. If you want to harvest game, I suggest looking into the EZ V sight. I am not interested in how good my groups are @ 30 yards (or whatever known distance). I am interested in how good my groups are at unknown distances within 40 yards, because that's hunting for me! "Frame it & claim it" - This is how an EZ V sight works. I find visualizing a basketball inside the "V" makes me instinctually punch the center of the vitals at unknown distances, & that's what hunting is all about!

I’ve been doing this for a couple years now, it’s funny how it’s not intuitive for a lot of people. All it is, is knowing your over/under. I leave my pin at 30, at 10 yards it’s 4” high, at 35 yards it’s 4” low. Any farther than that and I should be dialing to the exact yard. That was shooting about 290fps. I built heavier arrows this year, need to find my new pin setting. That just takes an afternoon.

i know this is an older video now but its still one of the best. wanted to add a tip in case it can help somebody. i converted a 5 pin sight to a one pin sight by removing three pins. i left one additional pin to use as a ranging pin. if the belly to back is inside of the two pins the deer is either outside of my range for acceptable drop or too small for me to wanna shoot, if the whitetails body is outside of the distance of my two pins, i know its inside of my shooting range, then i just drop to my top pin and let it fly. im definitely better now than i was a few years ago at judging distance but the pins help me reinforce my choice quickly while calming the nerves to deliver a confident shot.

If a deer is further than that, I should be able to adjust my pin to that range and make a shot. With my sight set at 28 yards, I will still be in the 10 ring on an IBO deer from 20 yards to 35 yards. Heavier arrows are a problem with this system, if your goal is to not to be holding over or under.

most deer are shot at 20 yards and in. hitting 4.5 inches high at that range in addition to the normal 4-6 inches of drop that is normal of a deer shot at by a bow moves your point of impact up by 10.5 inches. Math looks good on paper until all variables are taken into consideration.

On modern archery equipment 0-20 yards is generally going to be the same pin setting. So, in this instance, a 34 yard pin setting would hit just as high at 5,10, and 15 yards as at 20 yards.. POI with a 34 yard pin setting and a 20 yard shot in a 15 foot tree stand is going to be the same measurement as the data point collected when shooting the 34 yard pin setting at 20 yards on flat ground. Garret did mention that you need you second and third axis' set on your sight before doing this to be as accurate as possible.

Some people just like the simple sight picture that single pin offers. I’ve been doing this for years - when I’m in a tree I set the sight at the known distance. When I’m on the ground I set it at 30 - I would aim a couple inches low at 20, but dead on from 25 to 35. At 40 I have to aim about 6” high. Beyond that I’m probably not shooting, but if I do, I would take the time to range and adjust the sight.

@@denverlewis3486 I do have some drop. my single pin is dead on at 40 yards. So at 45 yards my arrow will drop around 3-4" and at 50 yards I aim just a little high. but from 5-45 yards every shot is in the kill zone of a deer so I dont adjust at all from 5-45 yards. Makes hunting so much easier. I killed a doe at 16 yards last year and a very nice buck at 28 yards. One pin no adjusting at all.

What sight is this? Thanks

The sight is B3 archery and the scope is a Shrewd Optum. We put links to them both in the description!

This system works great when you have fast arrow speed. Like 290+ the drop becomes less and less. Slow bows/arrows this isn't the best idea. He's using a slow bow here as shown in those huge drop measurements.

Why not just use a multi pin sight?
@ericlind35694 жыл бұрын
Because some of us don’t like the cluster of pins mounted horizontally. It blocks the sight window substantially, at least that’s my opinion. I’ve been shooting a single pin HHA Optimizer lite for over 20 years and have always had enough time to adjust my yardages. That was until I started elk hunting. Now instead of being effective to any whitetail out to 40 yards, I needed to extend my effectiveness to 60-70 yards for our west. I was shooting pie plates at 70 yards, but it didn’t matter, because I ended up shooting my 6x6 at 8 yards!! Hahahahaha

Andrew Sullivan Mainly preference. Some people may have certain vision issues that would make shooting a multi pin difficult. Most importantly just shoot what you are comfortable and confident in!

I have been using a single pin sight for over 30 years and shoot 3 to 5 deer annually. In those 30 plus years I have had I think 1 deer that I have not recovered so I think it is a very ethical way to hunt. I know hunters that use 3 and 5 pins that have a way worse record than that because when they get buck fever they look at the wrong pin or just plain can not guess yardage. Its all in what you are comfortable with.

@@blindluckoutdoors4850 ive used a single pin too. I now use a 3 pin slider. I have nothing wrong with a single pin. I shoot a 500gn arrow and my drop between 20-40 is too much to risk. This is not for everyone and a lot of new hunters will think this is a good idea when its not.

This works well, but maybe not if your bow is slow or you use excessively heavy arrows like some have been led to believe are necessary. I have been shooting this exact method for 8 years plus and killed 6 elk and 5 bucks at all 30 to 48 yds. My bow is fast and my arrows are lighter, but this works with just a little practice and takes a lot of stress at that moment. Plus its really easy to hold low or high if you need.

@@250zxSkeeter Nice to see that someone else likes this method! You are correct though, the setup and the individuals preference determine whether this setup is going to be effective or not.
