Deer hunting

[UBA]

140. What's the yardage for a bow to start worrying about spin drift?

Buzz kill.  Back to reality already?

Hahahahahaha true that #PrestigeWorldWide!!!

I can play along.
I think if you are good to 140 for deer you might want to do a little elk hunting as well.  They are bigger than deer so you ought to be able to stretch it out to 175 or 180 and still hit one.

At that yardage, it might bounce off an elk!

Only 140 why so close?

360fps I don't think so

[fishnfur]

My bow would explode if it could put out 360 fps!  As it is, I'd have to aim at about 45 degrees up from the target to get out to 140 yds and my sight ring would be about the length of the bow's lower arm.

I bet 50% of the people that say they dont take shots over 50yards r lying and take 90yards shots on mule deer all the time...lol

[tgray]

   No different than rifle hunters taking 4-5 and 600 yard shots when they only practice at the 100 yard range.

I would like to believe that people have enough ethics or common sense to not just throw lead or flick sticks at outrageous yardages. 

[LabChamp]

With all these long range TV shows now... everybody can make that 800 yard 15mph crosswind shot didn't you know? Just buy the Huskemaw system from best of the west boys

If u are up to date with bow hunting at all then u wouldn't consider arrows to still be sticks...

[mburrows]

Dale are you by chance related to bildo?

I also wouldn't be considering shooting a bow at a 140 yards either.  But I would say that most of the animals on my wall would say otherwise just sayin.
