I'm not one to start an argument, so please don't take this question as being overly critical, but... How can you fail to see the difference between 1"accuracy and 3" accuracy. A lot of times, leaving 3" of play in your accuracy WILL result in a wounded or otherwise unrecovered animal. As bowhunters, we OWE it to the animals we hunt to be as accurate as possible.

My last 40 big game kills resulted in 1 lost and unrecovered animal; a big sow hog.

I guess it's just my bow, but I use the same pin from 10 yds on out to 35 yds, and I don't have to aim higher or lower. In fact, I've only got 2 pins set on my bow out of 4. Anything beyond 60 yards is gonna have to have thin skin, be deaf as a doorknob, and be stone still.
