If the wind is 50 mph and under I will go out to 100 yds. If it gets above 50 mph, say like 65 mph I will keep it under 75 yds. I had a 60 mph wind one day and shot one at 80 yds. I had to lead the beast 62 yds. I did catch the back of both lungs but thought it would be to risky to try that again. I will only take ethical shots.

I TRY NOT TO SHOOT THAT DISTANCE EVEN WITH MY SLUG GUN OR RIFLE!
Why would I even think of 85 yds with a bow. By the way mine is 30 yds.
It takes patience and virtue. Good things come to those that wait!
