Every deer I've killed has been inside 30 yards. I would go out to 40 yards if:
[ul][*]Conditions were perfect[*]It was a P&Y class buck, and[*]I thought there was no chance he wasn't getting any closer.[/ul]
I had one opportunity that met the criteria above. I attempted a shot at what I thought was 40 yards, butit turned out to be a little farther than I anticipated. The arrow flew just under him.
