The way I've played this is that touching the subject of a thrown spell with your body or staff negates the range penalty. With a "proper" big wooden staff this could even reach two hexes.

However if your target is restisting this takes an additional to-hit roll to touch them, and then the casting roll. So it's only useful for targets who want you to touch them.
