[QUOTE="Guest, post: 18136"] Wow! Brent that was some pretty intense stuff. Very interesting but way out of my ballpark. You are in a whole different world than someone like me who is math challenged and the holdover system is the only way to go. You can probably do all that quickly in your head in the field. I have to imagine there is no way I could use that system other than to carry some type of computer in the field to do the figuring for me. My system is I get the range (lazer rangefinder or mildot) place the animal in the correct spot on the holdover bracket and check the wind pick a spot and squeeze her off. Of course my limit on big game is 600 yards, and have only actually shot animals at 500 yards. I can see where it becomes MUCH tougher at longer ranges where the lines in the holdover bracket get further apart. Appreciate you taking the time to present such a thorough explanation. [/QUOTE]
