| i've heard the '6 dozen at 100 yards sorts the men from the boys' arguement before. Well, not really. It means that those people who are good at long distance beat people who might be better at short distances.
If you have archer A) who can shoot 300+ at 90m, but can't shoot very well at 30m (comparitivly) and archer B) who can clean, or come very close to cleaning 30m, but isn't very good at 90m (low draw weight?) then is one a better archer than the other?
IMO you cannot tell from this information alone, yet a york only really takes into account the longer distance (i've heard it said that a york can only be won at 100 yardsl, but can be lost at any distance). A Fita on the other hand would take these archers and enable you to compare their scores fairly to judge who was the better archer.
A truly great archer must be able to deal with the mental pressure of short distances AS WELL as being accurate at long distance. A Fita tests both of these fully, as opposed to a York which only truly tests one.
