Way too shoot Mike. Im buying a new mathews from Tom gursky and when i get it i have to look at the setup. I used to shoot With hoyt brass small tip pins for a bigger view of my target. These pins are used by target shooters and have a fine point. This bow has a drop away rest and im going to try that, my old bow had a two finger pointed pin rest that also worked good. This year i’ll be able to make it to the woods.

Getting the Bow ready…

This is my fist bow with a drop away and I am very impressed with it. Also like the quietness of the drop away, you never have to worry about anything wearing down and being noisy like I did on the prong style rests.

July 19, 2006 at 6:15 pm #18731I realy like the .19 pins. You can acually put the pin inside your target instead of covering it up.

Good Point Mike, but what I found out that works best for me is at 20 yards I use a .40 pin and a .29 pin @ 30 yards and .19 pin @ 40 & 50 yards. For the exact reasons you stated. I found by decreasing the size of the pin at those yardages it makes the target/deer look the same on the pinJuly 31, 2006 at 3:03 am #465214

What do you guys with single sights do? Some people say to sight in at 25 yards and don’t move the pin.August 2, 2006 at 2:23 pm #465960I also have the HHA single pin sight which is very bright but I don’t like adjusting it for different yardages when the hunt is on..its just another thing that can go wrong or create movement.

August 14, 2006 at 8:44 pm #19261I also run Trophy Ridge drop away and a Vital Gear 3 pin. I love my set up !!! Lip’s right, confidence is something you can’t put a price on. I spent about $300 more than I wanted on hang on’s, but when its all said and done, it was well spent.
