What is the shooting distance for men's and women's classes during the Olympic Round?

The shooting distance for both men's and women's classes during the Olympic Round is 70 meters. This distance has been established to create a standardized competitive environment that tests the shooters' accuracy and skill.

When archers compete at this distance, they must demonstrate not only their technical abilities—like form and release—but also their mental focus and consistency over a longer range. The decision to set this distance at 70 meters allows for a fair competition format, ensuring that all athletes, regardless of gender, face the same challenges in terms of distance and conditions.

Understanding this distance is crucial for coaches and athletes in order to prepare effectively for Olympic-level competitions, as training and techniques may vary significantly when preparing for different distances. In contrast, other distances such as 50m, 90m, and 100m do not apply to the Olympic Round for archery.
