It HAS to be easier to hit if it's nearer - by definition it's a bigger target and you can sling softer. :-)

If I have to hit a target that is closer than 50m, then I'll have to change the angle of release. But at 50m i can still shoot up and change the distance by adjusting the power of the throw which I think is easier.
