Default RE: What' s Your Range?

recently, I' ve read an aritcle written by one of the 5 top Canadian 3D shooters ?

" ....Many Bowhunters may question “Is it ethical to shoot game at that distance.” If you can group broadhead tipped arrows in a four inch group at fifty yards, you can feel confident in taking shots at Moose, Elk and Deer out to fifty yards. To have the ability to take game successfully at this distance several things must come into play and certain rules must be adhered to.

Here are my rules of engagement:

-The animal must be broadside or quartering slightly away
-There has to be virtually no wind. Wind drift can contribute to being a foot left or right
-The animal must have no knowledge of my whereabouts or better yet be distracted.
-The animal has to be standing still or feeding with its head down."
