he wind kept pushing throughout the day, trying to move cold air and mist from Grotto Bay up the hills onto the shooting range. Gusting from 8 mph to 16 mph, shooters had to deal with a very difficult fishtail wind from behind. A fishtail wind is from behind or directly in front of the shooter, moving swiftly in an hour or more in either direction. In this case, the wind changed quickly from 5 ’o clock to 7 ’o clock. In such a scenario the wind speed is less important, but a change in direction has a huge impact on the bullet’s final destination. It was a challenging day for ELR shooting.
