Default RE: Farthest bull eyes practice shot?

During training for our 2006 New York FITA championship, I shot my personal best score at 90 meters (roughly 99 yards) of a 319 if I remember correctly. This consists of 36 arrows shot (6 seperate ends of 6 arrows each)at a target that has 10/9/8/7/6/5/4/3/2/1scoring rings outside and in the elements.

I don't remember how many 10 rings I hit but it was quite a few. The wind is a real PITAat those distances though, I remember having to read the wind flags and learning how to give it some kentucky windage to compensate.

That's me at full draw in the black, and I'm shooting at one of the furthest target butts you can see on the far right hand side, I believe this was one of my 90 meter ends.
