Average shot distance ?

<< < (2/5) > >>

Scallorn:
I wouldn't take a shot past 20. Most of my hunting situations are less than 15. I would like to think that I could hit a target at 20, but it's scary what the stress will do to you. lol

JW_Halverson:
If you are like Pappy down in Tennessee, you get lazy and only shoot deer at arms length.  Saves on tracking. 

Jeremy Holden:
Alright, so I was being unrealistic in my shooting/bow ability.  Now if I can master the woodsmanship to get that close I'll be doing pretty good.  Thanks for replies fellas!

adb:
My personal distance limit is 20 yards. A couple years back, I let a full 5X5 walk, cuz he was just past my limit. I felt that was much better than wounding him.

vyadha:
At  recent 3d shoot I was in the 8 ring at 35yards.
Hunting I keep it under 20. One of the hunting skills i hold the highest is stalking. Get close and then get a little closer
