Let me add, I agree that it was poaching, and any bowhunter that takes a "60 yard" shot needs his bow taken away.
That's just slinging an arrow into the air and hoping it hits something.
It would have to be perfect conditions for me to take a 40 yard shot.
I live in Indiana and we have the same open land.
That's why we hunt the tree belts, and I've never taken a shot past about 25 yards.
Never needed to.

These broad statements about shot distance are insane. I wouldn't take a 60 yard shot, but that doesn't mean that no one should. There are plenty of archers out there who would take and make a 60 yard shot all day. Saying that its wrong to take a 60 yard shot is insane. And Joel you were poaching and it sounds to me judging by what you've posted on this thread alone that you are an idiot
You should read the whole thread, Pastorhunter clarified his comments nicely shortly after. But I guess you just wanted to jump in and call someone insane...
And for the few comments about this guy being from NJ (kenVT?) if you think people from NJ share the ethics of a guy like Joel then you are right in his class. I live in NJ and have killed over 40 deer and managed not to poach any of them!
