Default How far is too far?

I had a buddy last week call me to help him track a deer...and while in the process of getting the hole gist of the story, he said he shot it at 60 yards!Ok I've heard of people making these long, crazyshots. For me,once they get past 40, I will not even think about attempting a shot. I'mthinking of myself being an ethical hunter, why take a shot that dangerously decreases the chances of bagging that deer. I would rather watch them walk then attempt tomake a tough shot and wound one no matter what the size/sex. This is my ethical standpoint...and my only standpoint. What is your range? Any otherthoughts on these extremely long shots?
