These were the following conditions.
3” of fresh snow had fallen and it was forecasted to be there for several days, with no additional accumulation.
You were hunting a place where you really didn’t have to worry about the animal making it to a property line
You had the next couple days off incase a long track job/search was needed
The animal was relaxed and broadside and in the wide open
It was likely to be your last chance at a quality animal for the year

So there’s the situation. Do you take a shot farther than you normally would?
It doesn’t matter if your normal max is 10 yds or 100 yds, given the above conditions, would you chance the shot?
To minimize argument potential, a simple yes or no will suffice, you don’t need to state your actual yardage.
