I shoot almost all year long (weather permitting). I shoot from 20 - 60 yds in 10 yd increments to verify my sights are set properly. I normally practice at 40 yds regularly and can keep my arrows in a 3" circle. Now, knowing what I am capable of is half the battle when it comes to shooting at game. BG is right about the adreneline thing. But it is all the practice during preseason that puts you into 'autopilot'. And although I am confident out to 40 or 50 yds, you will not see me shooting at a deer past 25 yds. You shooting 6" groups at 60 yds is fine. And that may be the best that you can do with your equipment. Maybe a higher quality arrow might improve group size a bit. Or maybe a little more tweeking with your tuning. But IMO, you aredoing better than most.
