You have to understand that them boys from out west have to shoot that far. I have a buddy I shoot with here that grew up hunting AZ, he holds a better group at 70 yards than he does at 20 yards. I would not take a 60 yard shot either, but for them boys out west, a 60 yard shot is like our 35 or 40 yard shot.
I had the same problem (good groups far), and through the advice of someone on here, I am now balanced. The cause of my good groups far and short groups just ok was that I was concentrating much better on the long shots. I was looking at the short yardage and relaxing because the shot was "easy".

Sorry for being off-topic.
