But for a Trad hunter then yes that’s to far. Nothing against trad guys but They ARE far from perfect.
Truth be told some people are great shots with rifle or bow on targets but put a live animal in front of them.... not so much. Then you have your key board experts - never miss, never have an unseen branch deflect arrow or Bullet, never misjudged a-range estimate LOL.
No matter what Murphy’s law does exist.

You hit the nail on the head---I bear guided, for many years--Clients good on targets.A bear comes in they miss---Now get this--average shot 25-30 m.This happens many times during the season.Many never admit it but I always look for brass around our stationary 18ft tree stands.
