what distances do you all practice out to?

YJRR · 09-01-2009, 08:53 PM

Just wondering what is the "average" distance fellow bowmen (and women) practice to?

I am a firm believer on long distance practice, If I can put 10 out of 10 arrows in a little black hole target at 80yds I should never ever miss a shot at 40yds

I practice out to 60...but would never take that shot on anything

50 yards but only will shoot a deer out to 35-40.

Thirty yards is the max shot I will take...

I practice out to 55 yards. I would never take a shot at a whitetail from that distance while hunting but if you can sharpen your form to the point that hitting your target kill zone is no problem from 55 yards then it makes 25 yards seem like a slam dunk even in actual hunting situations.

25 yards...

On the gound i may practice out 50-60?

When i practice from my stand .
I practice from around 5 to 30yrds, i try not to take long shots on game i try to keep it 25 and less.
Over the yrs my ave shot on deer has been about 15yrds.

I love shooting 60-70 yards - by no means would i take that shot on an animal, but fun to shoot, wait watch wait - bam . drilled it. (actual time)
