    Id like to see this thread develop.
    Im not a long ranger by any means but I would like to be able to shoot very confidently on game to 600 in most conditions. Have shot game this far(well 585) but only in perfect dead still conditions. I need to shoot more in the wind I know this.
    I think I have a fair understanding of how wind flows over ridges gullys etc but no idea at all of judging speed.


    Would be great to see vids posted showing wind speed on a dodad and movement of vegetation.
