Default RE: fly far how?

I don't know much about flight shooting, but here's what little I have read about. One, some shooters use VERY heavy draw weights (Don was one of those). Arrow weights can be very light, at least in some classes. A good tail wind helps a bunch. Release is very important, as is holding your bow at just the right angle for optimum distance. And of course bow performance plays a role, but it's not always a determining factor. Think it was last year a world record was set with a stock Martin bow.
