Just wondering What most of you guys set you bow sights for. Does anyone set theirs for 15 25 35 45 55 yards and so on. or do you guys like to keep it even at 20 30 40 50 60 yards any replies would be awesome thanks. cause 15 yards seems pretty close for a mature mule deer buck. but just wondering if anyone sets there top pin at 15 or lower?

25,35,45,55,65 for me. I make sure to practice at closer distances to see how my bow performs.

l set mine at 20, 30, 40, 50...

20,30,40,50,60, then 70 is my leveling bar.

I go 30,40,50,60,70,80. I have found that my 20 yard pin and 30 yard pin are not off by really anything.

20-60 for me.

My 20 to 30 are allmost excact so I go20,40,50,60,70,80 even though 60 to 65 is the extent of my comfort zone.

thanks for all the replies

It really depends on your arrow weight and speed. I've been playing with a new bow (Quest Primal @ 30 inch draw) and at 70 pounds and with my 360 grain arrows I can shoot the kill on the mackenzie target out to 40 with my first pin. I've since turned it down to 60 and have set my first pin at 30 and can kill out to 35 with one pin. I'm going to use my old bow to finish this season then rethink pin spacing for next year. It's set at 20, 30, 40, 50, 60, 70. It shoots at 250 fps. I'm thinking the Quest Primal is 300 fps or better @ 70 (it's 287 @ 62). New toys are so much fun! But I'm sure if I get a chance to shoot a deer I'll blow it if I change now. It does shoot g5 Montecs really well out to 70 yards though.
