But you never know what will show up close...
Yep I generally cut my range almost by half right at closing time. Last year I had what would have been my biggest archery buck at 35-40 yards, I was at full draw but just didn't feel right making the shot. You look at him and see his outline and rack pretty well, then put the pins on him and it was just too dark out, there also might have been some brush in the way so I didn't want to push it. Had he been at 20 yards I think I could have taken the shot but further than that is was just too dark.
