| My stand site doesn't allow me to shoot further than 25 yards, but I feel I can shoot up to 32 or so. I like being close to the deer and it's a lot harder that way. | |

Well I haven't gotten a deer yet. But during practice even though I have my pins set at 10, 20, and 30. I have shot at the target at 4 yards. I did it because I wanted to see if I could estimate 40 yard with the the 30 yard pin, and it hit the kill zone on my practice target. But I haven't yet tried farther than that yet. I don't think I would need to, but I could be wrong since I am just starting up with hunting especially with a bow.

Now therefore, please take your weapons, your quiver and your bow, and go out to the field and hunt game for me. -Geneis 27:3

| | i can easily shoot 70 yards and do often, at my current stands i can shoot over about 25 yards max but under perfect conditions (which never happen) i would be very confident shooting a whitetaik at 60 yards | | | |

| | 40 yards for me, anything beyond that requires using Kentucky windage for a lack of pins. | | | |

| | I am very comfortable, and have even taken a deer, at 65 yards. Then again that shot was taken with no wind and very little in the way. Don't take a shot if you don't feel comfortable doing it. | |
