Default Crossbow scope question about shooting distance.

Yesterday, while practicing out of one of my treestand, shooting carbon bolts with field tips. I had three 3D deer targets out, One at 10 yards, one at 12 yards, and one at 17 yards. I had use my Bushnell 450 range finder to be sure of the yardage. I took a shot at the 17 yard deer using my 20 yard crosshair line adn darn near missed the 3D. My bolt caught the top 1 to 2 inches of it. When I went back to the 10 yard line it was right on.

Has anyone else had this kind of experience? Do I consider anything out to 20 yards a 10 yard crosshair shot?
