Shot these groups back to back from 72yds. Felt good doing it back to back. 3inch dot.

I rarely shoot under 43yds. Most is at 55yds. Makes the closer shots easier.

With groups that good at 72 yards, you cannot afford to practice at "normal" yardages. I wish I could do that. That looks like my offhand groups with a rifle at 72 yards!

Good shooting! There is something about those close "chip shots" that screw with me. All my misses over the years are on the easy, wide open, close shots.

I'm telling you that Longhorn is good stuff. I dipped Copenhagen fine cut for years until it became a rich man's tobacco.

Ya'll probably use Grey Poupon over standard mustard. I

Nice grouping.

I had never shot at distances further than 40yds, until last year. On a trip to Illinois, these guys were shooting walnuts off the top of fence post at 50yds consistently. It got my attention, especially after passing on a couple of nice bucks outside my normal comfort range. I now practice at 50, and it sure makes those 30 and closer shots seem much easier.

Great shooting! thumbsup

I just recently picked up a G5 Optix XR sight with the floater pin on the bottom so that I can stretch out a little further (easier) with my shooting and also to avoid shooting pin gaps at longer distances. It seems like a real well made sight, but it doesn't quite have enough adjustment to get the floater as high as I want it to be. Having a little plate made for my bow so I can move the whole sight up a little higher so the floater will come into play at 40 yards and further and I'm keeping only 2 fixed position pins instead of the 3 that it comes with. Hopefully, it will work out OK.

What kinda sight are you using?

A Vital gear 1 pin slider is the sight i'm using.I have it set at 25yds bottomed out so 25 and under i don't have to adjust.

I did shoot one last year at 30 and just aimed a tad high.
