Good call Lance… and we all did take that shot at 700…. and miss. I've been saying it for a decade; after about 600, things get Squirrley fast, in even moderately windy alpine conditions.
One of the guys has a goat tag this year, so I figured it'd be a good place to shoot. He took the very first shot of the day, and would have drilled a goat (570 rock). Depending on the direction it was facing, the miss on the 700 yard rock would have either been a clean miss, or a serious goat rodeo.
I learned (again) to trust my gut (or "undocumented experience" as Med refers to it).
Here's the landing…. 570 rock red arrow(ish), 700 yard rock blue arrow(ish). Wind 2-4 mph, from 4:00 - 6:00 (as the pic sits now.
