Regardless of equipment getting a legit 70 yd shot is not expected for the majority of bow hunters out there. In MD we can not use rifles. So to me a 200-300 yd shot is not something i ever really thought about.
My range with shot gun muzzle loader is with-in 100 yds (self impossed limit for ethical reason) now with a bow regardless of technology it cuts that distance in half.
Technoly is what will get new hunters into the woods. We need to get more and more people into hunting or else the ANTI's will eventually take away or rights.
I live and hunt in Maryland what county do you hunt in? I hunt in Frederick County. Which most part is shotgun/muzzleloader how ever there are parts of the county mostly the west side you can use a rifle.
