Why would you want to do that anyway? :dunno:  Archery hunting is about getting close. :twocents:

I would have been more impressed if he would have taken a tire out on that car!

First I have heard of it.  Doesn't seem conducive to consistent accuracy.  A guy could use a sliding sight or multiple sight pins with a solid anchor point if he really wanted to shoot at targets at extra long distance.
