Hunting at 70 yards? All the bowhunters at my club practice below 50 yards.

That's exactly my point. Olympic archery is at 70 yards, and they are very consistent at hitting the inner rings of the target. That extra distance would be great for hunting.

would it be ok to write the amount in m - this yard values still have no meaning to me and probably many others here

Had to look it up

70 yards = 64 metres

50 yards = 45 metres
