Real Hunting Distance?

Bentstick81:
 My tendonitis in my elbows are better, so I am on a mission to try and get my first selfbow harvest ;D. When you guys set up, what distance do you try to get your set up for the shot. I was just wanting to hear some set up distances everyone trys to get their shot from. I realize that it is the distance that you can accurately shoot. Just wanted to hear what distances you guys like your game to be. Thanks.

Josh:
less than twenty yards out but I would prefer it if the deer was close enough to reach out and touch, LOL.  ;)

half eye:
Most of my spots are heavily wooded and I try to set up at 12 -15 yds but will have lanes to 20.....The 20's are so I can see 'em coming, hate it when they just "materialize" out of thin air.

Postman:
I Second what half-eye says. Nothin worse than waiting for 3 hours just to get busted by a deer 10 yds away. ;D
I try to make sure they are screened for my draw, too, But I ain't made my bones with a selfbow either. Nothin' was movin today on our opener.

mullet:
 I like that 10 to 15 yd range. If it's dead on, perfect, I'll go25 yds.
