Hitting targets at 50yds is not that hard if your bow is tuned correctly! But bowhunting game is something altogether diffrent! First off an animal is not just a target it`s a living breathing animale that can give a hunter nerve problems to say the least! The animal can jump the " strings" you could "flentch" and ending up with an injured animal. shooting a big game animal at long distances is somthing that takes a little more practice than say just normal shooting, There are hunters that can and do take game ever year from long distance shots. But its not good for every hunter to try to take long distance shots. A hunter should stay within his shooting abilty to make a leathel and ethical kill. Rather than just becouse he thinks he can do it! [&:] RTA47
