One for the record books

Two weeks ago German archer Kristina Berger established a new women's compound FITA record; this week Peter Elzinga of the Netherlands established a new record for the 90m FITA with a 352/360. To put this in perspective, the bullseye is just under 5 inches in diameter and placed almost the length of a football field away from the archer.

Congratulations are definitely in order for Mr. Elzinga.

I would also like to point out that he is the current record holder for the men's compound FITA format with a 1419/1440, shot back in 2009 with one of my all time favorite bows; the venerable Hoyt Vantage Elite.
