RE: 40 yard shot
40 yards shot are ok if you are skilled at shooting broadhead tipped arrows at that distance & you take every oppourtunity to make sure you take a good shot.
It's all in your skills & your ability to make that shot. Can I say it is ok for you to take a 40 yard shot.....no I can not. You have to base that on your shooting skills & what you feel is right.
