Longbeard...

If I know I've hit a deer.....I'll empty my quiver on him until he either quits moving or gets out of range.

Whats your point?

I don't know if you want to know what he is implying, after all, Longbeard brags about head shots, that tells me where his head is at and that it's probably a good thing to not be on the same wave length...

My name is Ken and I took a head shot on a deer at 5 yards
I saw you, it was just easier to ignore you .

As for the thread here, 25 max with 20 or under being ideal. Yardage wise I'mwanting to track them under what some of you are capable of shooting.

I have pins to 60! Shooting a Bowtech Allegiance 70#'S If I am relaxed, ranged, and ready I will take 50! Only if all three of the above apply. If not 35 40!

40 yrds max.and it would have to be a clearbroadside shot and i would have to know the exact yardage.Over the years that I have bowhunted 95% of the deer I have killed have been inside 20 yards,because I try to place myself no more than 25 yards where I think a deer may travel.Sometimes it works TOO!
