I practice with my compound out to 55 yards because being able to keep all my arrows in the kill zone at that distance makes the closer shots seem easy. But on a live whitetail I don't shoot past 35 yards. Out to that distance I feel pretty certain that if I aim at the heart that animal is mine barring a truely unusual freakazoid reaction on it's part.
Like the others said, it's not just about how far you can shoot accurately. The longer that arrow is in the air the more time that animal has to duck, take a step, turn, etc, etc,..
The best index to a person’s character is (a) how he treats people who can’t do him any good, and (b) how he treats people who can’t fight back.
