3 pins, green, red, green .019" 4x scope lens.

Have my 3 fixed pins set to 20, 25 and 30 yards.

Was sighting in today at 60 yards and found at about 55 yards I was starting
to run into vane clearance issues with the sight hood. I'm using 2" blazers odd color vane straight up at 90 deg. Was able to nock the arrows 180 deg. and
got the height at 60 yards ok but was limiting for much past that.

I was using my top 20 yard pin for ranging out to 60 yards, before I make any other changes I'm going to use my bottom 30 yard pin instead for ranging.
Talked to Spot hogg about this they said simply use the 30 yard mark on the
sight tape to align up with where the 20 yard calibration mark used to be.
The 20 yard cal. mark will be indicated by the pointer when you take the cal.
tape off to swap it out with the actual sight tape.

Using the bottom fixed pin rather than the top fixed pin will give me a good bit
of lift from where I'm at now.

I'm shooting an older slower bow, DXT 2009 at 60lbs with a 28.5 beman and 100 grain target head appox. 400 grains total.

I also have the ability to go up in DW to 65lbs with 340 spine and 125 grain heads. But don't think I need to do that yet.
