[QUOTE="StumpGrinder, post: 2022310, member: 114832"] My longest shot was 500 yards, braced off a tree in Southeast Kansas where I grew up. I now live in the Piedmont of NC and rarely get shots over 100. I did make a couple of 160 yard shots and a 225 yard shot with a 10 mph crosswind this summer on a depradation tag. I have also missed a 20 to 30 yard shot on a rutting buck chasing a doe all around my stand. To be fair to myself though it was off hand, at a moving target, through brush. I actually missed him 3 times before the doe led him out of sight. I usually try to wait for a standing shot but I got a little excited with them running around right below me. I didn't figure I could miss at that range!!! I would have been better off with a shotgun, and the next year I did get one with 00 at a similar range. [/QUOTE]
