RE: Scoring better at longer distances



Quote:
Pete_T - 3/8/2005 2:52 PM I've just submitted my first 1st class score having shot a Long National- I actually scored better (on average) at the longer distance than the shorter. Any reason for this? Anyone else experienced it? I'd have thought the shorter distance should be easier to shoot at. Pete
</p>

I've often found I shoot better at 80yrds than 60yrds (well I did last year - shooting has been somewhat disrupted this year...). It may have something to do with fletchings kicking in over the longer distance and stabilising the arrows more - I'm sure Joe would have a better explanation though </p>
