38 yards! I don't think I will ever shoot that far again though. Yes, I practiced and could've hit at 50 if needed. I was very lucky. The deer werent spooked, wind slightly blowing. The deer ducked, and turned and I hit her in the neck or she would've been hit bad.
i had a similar situation on a 22 yd shot. the deer moved and turned far enough that the arrow passed over its back and hit it in the throat. it still stumbled off about 40 yds. that same reaction at 40 yds would have probably resulted in a clean miss. they are quick and the distance they can move before an arrow can cover 40+ yds. incredable.

Killed the shed in my back yard at 52 yards trying to shoot my compound with fingers instead of release.
Farthest on game is 33 yds.

48 paces.. prob around 50 yards. I got a pass thru but I was lucky. The arrow moved close to a foot before it hit her.

20 yds. I don't feel comfortable shooting past 30 and I have always had them within 20 yds.
