Karpman 44 Posted February 11, 2011 Report Share Posted February 11, 2011 Hello guys Sorry I am sure this has been covered, Just after tips on hold over shooting up a tree angle about 45 degrees and such. Firing on a upwards angle at zero range what sort of hold over would be required roughly with a .177 also downwards. A link to the relevant post would be just dandy! Karpman Quote Link to post
Phantom 631 Posted February 11, 2011 Report Share Posted February 11, 2011 No Hold over at all, you would need to use Hold Under Have a search for Zini's (Si's) explanation, describes it in great detail and if like me you dont get it at first, there is also a graphical demo on the thread that made it all click for me Phantom Quote Link to post

Dead Twigs are a good start Darren as long as there is nothing else like roads or foot paths within 500 yards or so. You would be suprised how far a pellet will travel Phantom Quote Link to post

aaronpigeonplucker 32 Posted February 12, 2011 Report Share Posted February 12, 2011 hey mate, if you want to practice this then find a ivy bush. they have berried almost all year round and they make great targets, espeically if there backed by a leaf to show you wear you miss. Quote Link to post
