[QUOTE="LVJ76, post: 1737516, member: 108965"] You make a great point. At the shooting range where I practice there is always a wind coming from the west-southwest, anywhere from 10 to 20 mph and sometimes gusts up to 35 mph, so I already know how much I need to correct. But in the field its different. Here is southern AZ most of the winds come from again the west and southwest especially in the desert, but the mountains are a completely different ball game, wind going right on this hill but left where the deer is at on the other hill, its not an easy skill to acquire, takes tons of practice and some mistakes to learn. I've only lost one deer, it was 9 years ago, a gut shot and it still haunts me, I still regret it. [/QUOTE]
