Default RE: Shot distance poll

Maybe you should read my second post again Jason....THEN respond. I will reiterate for you yet again. Generally (this term means most, but not all) deer will hold the same patterns and routines from day to day, changing very little. Now I'm not a rocket scientist, but maybe, just maybe your 37 yarder wasn't one of the "most" used previously, and the remainder of your other deer would fall into that category.

IF you read through the posts, you would also noticed that I took my elk this year at 42...obviuosly I don't have a problem with shooting longer distances if you are a capable archer. Simply stated, in MOST cases (there is that word again...remember, that means a higher % do, rather than don't) there is no need to even draw at anything over 20-25 yards if your homework (this would be scouting/treestand placement/etc.) is done properly.



Nothing like stating the obvious.
