When I practice I will practice out to 130 yards consistently... This not only builds a ton of confidence for the 30 or 40 yard shot but it will perfect your form to a - T!! If you are doing the slightest thing wrong such as gripping the bow just ever so slightly, or jerking upon your release these errors will be critical at longer ranges and you probably wont hit the target... It adds a degree of difficulty practing that far out which makes it fun. The first night in Caribou camp Cam and I were stackin them in there at 80 piece of cake and on the tundra longer shots are almost a given!
Anyways, I have never shot anything over 50 yards with my bow infact almost all the animals I have taken have been under 30 yards. But I still like to know that I am doing everything correctly and that if I can hit at 130 then a 50 yard shot is a chip shot!
