Towards the end as one was clearly shot too far back.....not on computer now to link it.
The point is that goats deserve a clean kill as much as any other animal and the anti hunters(there is a shit load more of them than us on this planet!) Do not need any more ammunition against us .

Good stuff.
Im not real good at long range myself....I understand the physics very well and the app does most of the maths but nothing but practise will help you with wind estimates.....I dont shoot enough to be any good over the last 4 or 5 years so really limit my shots to where wind is not really a factor.
