50 yards max for me with perfect conditions. 35 if its less than perfect. There's just no reason for me to risk a bad shot. The equipment isn't the issue it's all the freak behind the bow.

When I set up a stand I range a perimeter of about 25 yards. I wait for the deer to walk into that circle and take the shot. If I knew the distance, like if I had time to range the shot I could take a deer out to 50 yards or so if I really wanted to. It would have to be a very calm still deer though and I would have to know the range exactly with my bow.

I feel very comfortable with 30 yards.
