[QUOTE="Bang4theBuck, post: 2255434, member: 73596"] Don't mean to pile on, but I kinda suffered from the same thing last year when preparing for my first wilderness horseback Mule deer hunt. I have a kestrel and love it, but not so much for hunting. Or should I say not to carry around on the hunt. I would simply run the numbers based on expected Temps and altitudes and convert them to DA's. I printed 3 cards to carry with me. One was middle of the lowest potential DA range (say 2500ft), one for middle on the middle (like 7500) and then one on the high end (10000). I then simply added a note on the card to tell me what every 10f and what every 1000ft elevation represented in moa.. Our Temps ranged from 28 to 58 , and our elevation ranged from 4500 to 9000, and I was never really outside of the usefulness of the 3 small cards. [/QUOTE]
