HOWEVER, 30 yards is my absolute maximum hunting range and I strongly prefer 20 yards or less. 4 out of 5 deer I've killed with my bow have been at 15 yards or less and broadside. For me to take a 30 yard shot it's gotta be PERFECT or I'll pass.

So far in my 3 year bow hunting career I've never missed or wounded an animal (5 for 5 on deer and 1 for 1 on turkey). I'm not being boastful but I really believe that because of my shot selection. The only time I ever gut shot a deer was when I took what I thought was a 30 yard shot and it turned out to be 35. I vowed never again.
