All my shots have been 25 yrds and less.... I hunt pretty thick woods so must of time they are right up on top of you. Though I practice out to 50 yrds and feel confident at 45 from a tree.

My first doe was 40 yards away. I shot and missed at 23 yards, it ran a little and stopped, and I knocked another arrow and put a good shot on it the second time! Since then I've not had anymore shots over 25 yards.

20 yards is the longest, 6 yards is shortest. Im comfortable out to 40!

2 at 40.0 yds. I train them not to go any further!

Exactly the same for me. Even though I routinely practice out to 80 yards, I've never had to attempt a longer shot that 25 yards. I could have, but since they were headed my way anyway I let 'em close the distance.
