4 yards on a turkey. No blind, just sitting on the ground. The tom & 2 jakes walked by at 2-3 yards but I took my shot after they passed.

Various bows, but if you see me shooting, it's probably a Toelke in my hand!

My closest shot was a mature whitetail taken in the heat of the rut, from the ground in a blow down with my single piece bow on public land. It was taken at or just under 4 yards.
I've also had a feral pig charge me after a hit at about 18-20 yards when I was younger that I wound up putting multiple rounds into that got under 1yd from me, but that particular scenario was very atypical and NOT representative of a good, close shot from the ability to get close to an animal.
