RE: Maximum Range?
 

I would have to say 50-55 yards. I make 50 yards shots on the 3D course, but have never taken one that far in the field. I just know I have the worse luck in the world, perfect scenario, something will go wrong for me. A touch over 40 yards is my further kill with a bow, it is also the furthest shot I have taken. Most of my kills are between 10 and 15 yards, I like to hunt in the thick stuff.

RE: Maximum Range?
 

im comfortable out to around 40-45

RE: Maximum Range?
 

I "Might" take a 30yd shot, now.

It was 40 two years ago.

It was probably 35 last year.

It may be 25, next.

RE: Maximum Range?
 

All the shots I've taken have been within 40 yards, and would say max would be 45 under "perfect conditions". I passed up a shot opportunity last year at 55 yards, and that was a no brainer. I'd rather move my stand and try for another opportunity than take a shot I'm not confident in.

60 at the very max with perfect conditions... 40 yards raining and windy on the buck of a lifetime ;)

RE: Maximum Range?
 

Since Howard took out an elk at 185 yards, I'd say 190 yards at least.

RE: Maximum Range?
 

That is me for sure as I get older I am no longer comfortable taking longer shots in fact I passed a shot last year at a 140's buck at 50 yards perfect situation no wind broadside in the field but I just wasnt comfortable taking it.

RE: Maximum Range?
 

30 yards and in and its going down. Farthest i have ever taken an animal was 40 yards, right in the boiler room. That being said, other than that doe, the farthest shot i have taken was right around 20. If you put yourself in the right spot and have patience, you typically wont need to take a far shot.

Given everything as described and a deer totally relaxed and unaware....I'm not answerring ;)

RE: Maximum Range?
 

35 yards for me.....after that the target seems to get exponentially smaller each yard out.
