[QUOTE="yobuck, post: 1050339, member: 12443"] Years back before there were books and computers, we would use what data we had to add elevation then shoot at the chosen target. If we missed we'd make some corrections and shoot again. When we hit the target everybody was happy. Next time if we'd use the same data chances are we might miss again. But we knew how to fix that so as to be happy again. Funny part is a deer would usually wait around till we got it fixed. Today of coarse were told that we can expect first round hits if we do it right. But were not told by who, with what, and how often. So it always pays to bring extra ammo and shoot fast so it sounds like an echo rather than a miss. [/QUOTE]
