    Sighting in question

    Can not having a stablizer cause you not to be able to sight in pins?

    stabilizer has nothing to do with your pins, you can site it with or with out the stabilizer, If that is what you are asking.

        Your bow should not need a 10 yard pin IMO. A 20 pin as top pin will usually cover 20-0 yards. If not I would think something is wrong with your bow.

          When sighting in i have moved my second pin almost over the top of my first pin. What would cause that? i know its not normal but for me this is what i want to for my set up. Who to say i made my first pin at20 that my second pin at 30 would do the same thing as above

            I would bet you will not have the same problem between 20 and 30 but they will be closer than 30 and 40 and so on. set one at 20 and the next at 30 and see if you have problems. Your 20 should work at 10 just fine.

              IMO I wouldn't shoot 10 yards not normally something that needs to be shot personally. If you have your 20 set then move on to farther distances. Your 20 should cover from your closest shot to 20 yards.

                    I want to know why when i am sighting in my 20 yard pin that i have to raise it up so much that it basically covers my first pin??? I dont mean to sound rude But its a personal preferance for me

                      Why can you not sight in your 20 yard pin?

                        What would cause that is your bow shooting flat ( I don't know how else to explain this) from 0 - 20 plus yards.

                          I am not sure why i cant sight it in at 20 yards. when i was sighting it in this weekend I had it all the way up covering my 10 yard pin and still was not hitting it. in the circle. i am trying to rule out user error or hardware error

                            they are saying that your point of impact is basically the same at 10 yards as it is at 20 yards, meaning your 20 yard pin will be in the same spot if not a hair higher than your 10 yard pin. The arc of your arrow travel at 10 yards may actually be higher than 20 yards so you may actually shoot a hair high at 10 yards using the pin you have sighted in at 20 yards...

                              Arrows don't fly flat out of a bow. An arrow can hit higher at 20 yds than it would at 10. Meaning, If you set a 10 yrd pin and hit bull everytime and then shoot out to 20 with that pin you might find yourself hitting high instead of low like you might think. I am guessing as stated before that your ten yard pin is in they way. I suggest trying to sight in your bottom pin for 20 and test that. I have no other ideas but do not believe it to be equipment error. I also don't believe it to be user error unless you refuse to move your 10 yrd pin.
