ive only shot one or two squirrels, but the one shot was about 10 yards off the side of the tree, and the other was 23 yards.

Shot one about 50yards once, but the coolest by far was one at about 3 yards with a rocket mini blaster 1 3/4 inch cut. Needless to say it pretty much field dressed him.

the farthest one i shot was 36 yards...i had a junk arrow knocked and bet my buddy i couldn't hit the ol' black bandit on the tree, sure enough i got him...hit the side of this wierd soft barked tree, went through and nailed him...it was a remarkable shot in my opinion
