I shoot each day at my little Delta riverbottom buck target. I have 8 good arrows now so I shoot 8 arrows at a time at 40 to 50 yards. I do alot of shooting at ranges between pins just to keep things interesting.The last 4 rounds of 8 arrows (over 3 days) have given me 29 quick kills, 2 a little forward and 1 in the gut. The first 3 shots in the round have all been kill shots.

That being said all of these shots were not taken from a stand at a dead 3D target where I am sure of the distance and not under hunting conditions.

If I had a similar situation with a broadside, unaware, stationarydeer that somehow I new wasn't going to get any closer I might take a 40+yard shot. I would feel much more comfortable wating for the chip shot though and probably would hold off. Last year I passed on a 40 yard shot just because it didn't feel right.
