Oh really, tell us how many antelope and mule deer you have gotten with in 20 yards to!!
Elk yes, antelope and mule deer NO!
I have shot 3 or 4 mule deer in my years of hunting and every one of them was within 15 yards. Take your time and do some scouting and you shouldn't have a problem getting them into a better range.
I have only shot 1 elk and he was exactly at 18 yards.
Wow 70 or 80 yards, I'm sorry but that is just to far and risky IMO.
I couldn't agree more. Way too many variables come into play at that range.
