yardage and wood bows

Blacktail:
this is a NO glass subject all wood...what is the max yardage that you would shoot a deer at or even practice at..john

hedgeapple:
Fifteen yards is my limit if everything is perfect.  I prefer 10 yards or less.  Practicing, I'll shoot out to 30 yards.

Wylden Freeborne:
Real situation? Live animal 15 yrds. Target....well, that depends on how many wheelie bows are at the range when I get there! I prefer to stay around 20 yrds max at home though, lest I lose any more darned arrows to the vortex that is my blackberry briar!

rossfactor:
I've been shooting at ten, fifteen, twenty and twenty five yards at home.  Starting to feel really good about the 10 and 15 yardage shots. Twenty and twenty five can be great at times, and unnacceptable other times.  I think I'll be sticking to shots under twenty yards in the field.

To me, my range is the distance that my first in the morning arrow is accurate. And that's 15 yards or so.

lowell:
Out to 15 yards is my feel good distance to shoot at a deer.

  In practice I shoot out to around 30 yards...maybe cause I can see the arch of the arrow better at a longer distance!! ;D
