WIND CALLING & PRECISION SCIENCE
By this point in the course you'll be feeling confident in your handling of a precision rifle and we can jump into the finer aspects of wind calling. Precision shooting is a paradox of science and art. It is an exact science for elevation but a guess at wind. Wind calling is the art of precision shooting and your skill will increase with experience but we will guide you through the major components of wind calling to allow you to take full advantage of your experience. Some key points include:
- How to measure wind at your location and input it into your solver
