RE: How do you compensate for shooting from an elevated stand?
I have never had to compensate at all. Like I said, I only shoot from about 20’ and I don’t shoot at steep downward angles. I was just wondering if anyone else experienced the same phenomenon.
The horizontal distance estimation is an often used rule of thumb. However, it is subject to error at steep angles. The real reason for the difference in point of impact is change (decrease) in angle between gravity and arrow direction of forward travel.
