“Anyone can do it at any age. There’s not really an age limit,” Huish told TMZ. “You can be a phenom and you don’t really know.”
“”I’ll come to your house,” the champion archer said of Dre. “I will train you. I will dedicate my time to train with you.

Dre revealed his desire to go for the gold as an archer in an interview with Entertainment Tonight.
“I’m dead-ass serious,” he told interviewer Nischelle Turner. “I actually started playing around with archery in junior high.

“I stopped for a while, and my son bought me a setup — I don’t know if was for my birthday or Father’s Day or something like that. So I have it set up in my backyard. I heard that qualifying for the Olympics is 77 feet, and I practice at 90. Wouldn’t that be interesting to go, especially with it being here in L.A., and win the gold medal?”
The producer concluded by saying, “I feel like I can do anything.”
Elsewhere in the interview, Dre upped the excitement for his and Snoop Dogg‘s forthcoming album Missionary by calling it “some of the best music” he’s ever made.
When asked about working on Missionary versus Snoop’s 1993 debut Doggystyle, which he also produced, Dre said: “It was much more fun, to be honest, because we were kids at that time. Snoop may have been 18 or 19 years old and I think I’m six years older than him, so we were kids at that time.

“This one’s gonna show a different level of maturity with his lyrics and with my music. I feel like this is some of the best music I’ve done in my career […] I’m not playing.”
