I just saw Bryon Ferguson @ the a deer/turkey expo. He's known for his archery skills, such as shooting asprin out of the air. I acutally witnessed him shooting a livesaver thrown about 8' in the air & he was about 15-20' away. He also has a record of shooting a stationary balloon @, I believe was, 283yds. That was with a longbow. It is very possible that kill may have occurred. It depends on the bow, & shooter's capability. Would I attempt that let alone anything over 30-40yds? No. But I know my limits.
