My max hunting distance is 40-45 andjust like everyone else said must be under very good conditions. I usually go with my gut or at least try to.

I have taken deer out to 60 yds, although i'm very comfortable shooting at those distances, given the right situation. Just make sure your able and comfortable to make the shot. whether its 30 yds or 70 yds. I do live in Utah, so I don't get too many within 30 yds. Just practice... practice... practice!

I have pins out to 60 and i hope i never have to shoot that far at big game.
I practice at long ranges, the farthest being 100 yards and it makes those 20 and 30 yards shots look like 20
and 30 feet.
It really helps your accuracy to shoot at longer distances even if you dont plan to shoot that far.

just my .02

I shoot at 50+ yds practicing quite a bit.....but I don't have a place to hunt that would see me shooting over 40 yds, max.

Longest shot I've taken at a deer was 33 yds (and I thought it was a bit closer). That's about max, for my liking.

If I hunted the wide open spaces....I'd practice from further distances (60, 70, 80yds) and get proficient at the 40 & 50's (VERY proficient).

I probably wont try to shoot a deer thats over 35 yards away, maybe 40

25 yards but shooting 3 to 4 times aweek and getting better.

Let em fly, when the arrow is in the air there is hope. Not really,I shoot out to 30 yds. But where I hunt it is odd to be able to shoot over 30 yds.

You have to answer that question for yourself. I feel that anything over 45 yards at a deer is too far just because of their quickness, the time it will take the arrow to get there, their relative size, etc. 90% of my practice shots are father than 40 yards, but 45 is my personal max. Not because of my ability, but because of the things I mentioned above. You have to ask yourself, "Is it worth it?" If it is to you and you are comfortable with it, then good on you. I wish you luck getting one of those monsters at 10 yards. That is the distance I really like

If you plan on taking a shot that far make sure you have a range finder. Its harder to judge longer distances atleast for me anyways. I've never taken a shot past 20 yards. I stalked a bruiser last year to 35 yards, but didn't feel comfortable taking the shot. I know a lot of people could have and would have droped him at that range and I might have been able to, but the key word is might. Shoot at whatever range you feel comfortable at.

I have killed a couple of deer at right around 40 yards and it was in my first few years of bowhunting.While my shooting has gotten progresively better,my shot selection distance continues to shrink.So much depends upon the demeanor of the animal.A lot can happen in 40 plus yards,that deer takes a step and your in it's gut's,it wheels to chase a doe,your in it's ham etc..
I also practice all the while at longer distances,50 and 60 yards,and am very comfortable at those distances on a stationary object.Now when hunting I do my darndest to keep it within 30 yards,A better hunter will take more game than a better shot,one of my hunting mentors used to drill me with those words all the time.I think it was because he couldn't out shoot me.He has taken some awfully big deer though.
