I practice regularly out to 40 yards (I suck at that distance) hunting shots are nothing over 25.

I missed a Grouse at 30 yards this last week by an inch. If it were a elk I would have smoked it. Im with LBR I shoot the shots I know I can make on big game, but with grouse its either a kill or miss situation so Ill let em fly!

Good answer Mark.. I agree. I don't shoot my trad past 20 yards, I don't like looking for arrows..:biggrin:..

Now a compound is another story. I won't tell ya how far you wouldn't believe me.:s5:
