[QUOTE="goodgrouper, post: 156594, member: 2852"] I guess I'm not following your train of thought here Shawn. Are you saying that multiplying the distance by the cosine and looking at a chart is not as accurate as doing the same thing only punching it into the pocket PC? What if your chart is printed from the same Exbal program that is on your pocket PC? While shooting many targets at angles dialed in off of the pc's suggestion, I have never hit low as a cause of this. I would suspect that the Exbal program would equate the TOF factor and recalibrate the triangular model. If it does not, the difference must be so minuscule that you would not be able to distinguish that factor from all the others we have to take into consideration. For all intense purposes, I think telling your students what you have been telling them is correct enough that they will never miss an angled shot on big game unless they are shooting over a mile supposing that everything else is in harmony.
