This is where I agree with the “show us a normal person…”

Watching archery, they don’t IMHO show a good perspective of the whole range; to give the viewer at home a better view of the size of the target and the distance.

I’d yes love to see this with the air pistol and rifles.

I ride by an olympic archery center a few times a week. Around the outside is a 400m track so anyone who has seen the inside of a track field will know the distances. Less than 100m I'd say going by the targets I've seen.

The distance in archery is 70m

Yep. And for idiots like me at home; I’d love to see Jeff trot down there after a set to show everyone at home just how damn hard they worked to get that effing good.

They should have someone stand right next to the target.
