Default RE: Distance Ethics?

Great post Stickemup!!

My personal limit is 40 yds, and that' s really on a rare occasion, under certain circumstances. I usually limit myself to 25 and under, and 99% of my shots have been at that distance. I practice farther and can shoot confidently out to 50. But no way am I taking long shots. Way to many things can happen at long distances. A deer could lay down and go to sleep by the time the arrow get' s there at 80, even with a fast bow. Too much room for error.
