Beecel, I took exception to you saying "you guys are a bit crazy with some of your yardages" and "any more than 30 is bordering on irresponsible".

Somehow i thinkthat many folks are trying to emulate the "experts" on the Sportsman's Channel who shoot elk at 70 yards with a compound bow and elk at 700 yards with a rifle. They do not show their many screwups,with the animal escaping to die a lingering death. Saw one guy who admitted to taking a "Hail Mary"shot at an elk.
I had a happily feeding buck jump my string. The distance was about 40 yards. He hunched to the ground and the bolt zipped over his back.

I am abit curious as to how many times u Buck Hunter 14 are going to post a new topic by refrasing your original ? You need to come out of the closet! So don't run off and say u read on this forum about folks shooting Elk at 70 yds. with a compound Bow. Thats a comment made about TV videos and lousy stuff they do to try and sell to make their living off of Hunters like us who view them.
