Default RE: Distance Ethics?

Thank' s guys for the info. I guess this must touch off some deep feelings in bowhunters out there.

I mearly wanted to know if you' all could qualify your statements of Comfort Zone with your setup. BobCo19-65 stated that he shoots a wicked fast powerfull arrow. and is very accurate. That said his 28 yard max range can be taken the right way. He shoots that distance IN SPITE of having a longer distance setup. What if he was lobbing arrows to get to 28 yards?

Some responded with their feelings on the topic yet didn' t tell me what kind of rig they shoot.

My reference point for distance shooting comes from shooting about 125 " Tree Rats" (Squirels) every year with my bow. They taste great in pot pies and take a lot of the " Live Animal" jitters out of ya. I have taken them up to 80 yards. I also like to grouse hunt with my bow although it is MUCH tougher and if I get 2 per season I' m extreamly pleased. It really helps me get my yardages down pat.
