Use the appropriate hook

functions.php

function my_admin_enqueue_scripts() {

	wp_enqueue_script( 'date-picker-js', get_template_directory_uri() . '/js/custom_date_picker.js', array(), '1.0.0', true );

}

add_action('admin_enqueue_scripts', 'my_admin_enqueue_scripts');

custom_date_picker.js

// function to merge two Javavascipt objects IE compatible, from prototype.js http://prototypejs.org/doc/latest/language/Object/extend/
function extend(destination, source) {
	for (var property in source)
		destination[property] = source[property];
	return destination;
}

// Acf hook -> Hooks -> Filters -> date_picker_args
// see https://www.advancedcustomfields.com/resources/adding-custom-javascript-fields/
acf.add_filter('date_picker_args', function( args, $field ){
	
	// do something to args
	
	var custom_args = {
	  yearRange:			"-200:+100", // value to change
	};
	
	args = extend(args, custom_args)
	
	// return
	return args;
			
});
