I think it's 70m. I just caught the end and saw the Korean get a 7 when an 8 would have won it. He lost in a shootoff.

Not trying to derail this thread but yesterday I drove by the Town of Amherst recreation center at Clearfield and I noticed archery targets set up and a class shooting! I was surprised as Amherst is the last town I expected to see this! Found this link on the net.

i think recurve might be 70m and 50m for compound but compound score rings significantly smaller.  when they nail the 10 ring its shooting a grapefruit at 3/4 of a football field or apple at just over half a football field away.  that's pretty sick shooting even if they're the best in the world and shoot equipment a bit different than hunting setups.  that said i'm off to 3D league.
