This year, ive taken two deer. A doe at 25 yards and a buck at about 45 yards. I practice out to 60 yards every time I practice. That way I feel comfortable with long shots. It also helps you keep good form. Ive taken hogs out to 60 yards, but not a deer. My furthest on a deer has been between 45 to 50. Where I live, we have lots of open land, so many shots will be out a ways.

Now for my trad bows, I only feel comfortable out to 25 yards. I wont even attempt anything beyond 25 yards with a recurve.
