It’s not because we wouldn’t prefer a closer shot. It’s the type of country, terrain, and where the animals prefer to travel that make a 400 yard shot common for deer and elk.

I had Kingston, a Fire member come out for an elk hunt with me. I told him in advance of arriving that typically 400-600 yards was the range he’d be looking at making a shot on an elk. He killed his 5 point at 475 yards.

Last year, I shot a 5 point bull at maybe 120 yards. This was unexpected and rare as hens teeth. I was happy as hell!
