    Nice. The lines keep you focused on one thing at a time.

      Yes I noticed that and it made sighting in my bow a breeze!

        7 yards = 20 yard pin
        5 yards = 30 yard pin
        4 yards = 40 yard pin.
        and this works? first ive heard of it.

          It works. I've used this method for years. Then go to the 20, 30, and 40 yard distances and see

            I imagine it does work because at some point the arrow has to intersect as its falling just like a bullet does. I'll try it!

              So this method is new to me.
              How does it actually work.? Shoot from 4 yards to set 40 yard pin. Seems improbable. But might have to try it

                  Can someone explain this better? Very interested.

                      Its pretty self explanatory. At 7 yards, sight in your 20 yard pin. At 5 yards, sight in your 30 yard pin. At 4 yards, sight in your 40 yard pin. Then shoot those actual distances and tell me what you have.

                        I always shoot at 20, and move my pin accordingly until snuff can accurate. Then go to 30...40...50...and 60 and do the same. Once 20 is dialed in, the rest are simple. Just drop down to next pin and set elevation where needed. Don't understand or see why another method is necessary. But..... I didn't watch the video, lol.
                        But....whatever works for you and gives confidence.

                          7 yards because your top pin is the highest.

                          4 yards because your bottom pin is for longer distance.

                          This will get you real close.

                              "Snuff can accurate" at 20 yards may be way wide at 50 yards.

                                Does it matter if the target is on the ground or does it have to be elevated for this method?
