My max hunting range is 30 yards. I prefer the 15 to 20 yard shot if at all possible. I figure 17 yards, slightly quartering, and about a 160" rack is a sure shooter!

25-30 yds without a doubt! However most of my shots come within that range...

30 Yards is the longest shooting lane I clear. Of course I can see a deer working in, but 30 is the absolute farthest I will take a deer. I also have the ranges pre marked with red tape.

I was saying 40 yards before the season, but I' m gonna lower it a little to the 30-35 yard range just to be sure.

90.........That' s right. 90. I am very comfortable shooting game and targets at 90. As a matter of fact I have killed deer at 75 before. As fast as my bow shoots. 90 is my answer. 90.....feet that is.

Good Hunting

I feel confident out to 35 yards. I wouldn' t take a shot outside that distance. [8D]

Max range: 30 yards.
Min range: 10 yards.
Comfortable range 15-20 yards.
(My Cobra sights only have 3 pins anyway 10-20-30).
