[QUOTE=RayL42;1085117]Forgive me if some one has already made this point, I just skimmed most of the posts on the thread.
I always considered the long distance shots a bad idea (not necessarily unethical) due to the time it takes an arrow to reach the target. If your arrow is traveling at 300 fps it will take about a second to reach a target 75-100 yards away. In that amount of time a perfectly placed shot can land in a deer’s hind quarter regardless of the archer’s skill.[/
What he said
Dont matter how good a shot you are if the animal moves good luck finding it.
Maybe next week you will see it limping around with an arrow in its hind end.
Long shots with bow BAD
My 2 cents
