Default RE: Shot distance poll

PSE Firestorm, set at 70#. My max distance at an animal is 40 yds. The comfort level increases as they get closer as Matt/PA said. This is due to the animals ability to move and my ability to not see things between me and an animal that is farther away than 40. I shoot amywhere from 80 yds and closer in my yard, and can keep them in the kill zone of the 3-D Deer. that doesn't make it a shot I would take at a living animal. Sorry, I have to much respect for them to be launching arrows that may not hit thier mark. Longest shot I have ever taken on an animal is 35 yards at a Fox, Closest I have ever passed, is 10 yards on a wolf.
