Killed a Doe at 53 yards in 2007. With use of a range finder...

In 1993 I shot a rabbit at 90 yards with a golden eagle super hawk turbo...no sights

dont ask me how...but it was a perfectheart shot.

I killed a buck at 87 yards.it ran about 60 to 65 yards and down it went.and it was taped at 87.i would not tell anybody to take a shot over 30 yards.it is not how far you can shoot it is how good you can shoot.be the best you can be shoot every day if you can

52 yards on my first with a bow way back in the early 70's. I don't take those long shots anymore even though the equipment is much better.
