Never said anything like that. Just I would rather practice out further as I feel it make closer shots seem easier.

Your whole golf analogy is pretty off not even comparable really unless I had a recurve for my short game and a 40lb compound for my middle and a 80 for long game maybe.

But lets flip that around what good is it to putt 10 yards really well if you can only drive it 20 yards? Yet if you can swing really hard and drive a ball 300 yards straight and consistent you should be able to "take some off" and have even better control.

I'm not saying your way off base here and yes getting basics down is very important, but I am just in disagreement with you saying long range practice doesn't make you a better archer.
