[QUOTE="OldElkHunter1961, post: 2417742, member: 121205"] Numerous ballistics calculators will provide the laboratory solution. As a point of reference you should have a standard printed on your stock range card (eg: full value wind at 10 mph drift in 100 yard increments). Beyond that doping the wind becomes more learned art than wrote science. Reading mirage, dust, leaves, grass movement is illustrated in many sources. But you must observe and learn. Complicating this is the fact that at your position wind may differ from that blowing at the target's range and intervals in-between. It is a judgment call. If uncertain, leave the safety on and hunt in closer. Enjoy the hunt and your prep's leading to it. [/QUOTE]
