Practice at any range will make you better!
I find long range practice quite enlightening. It teaches you how much or how little cross winds affect arrow flight. How much quicker an arrow drops past 50 yards. How much a clean shot and follow through affects arrow flight. All things at 20 or 40 yards don't seem like a big deal when you have a 4 inch group.
