Answer: No lead required if the wind's not blowing. However, a strong wind moving the wires a lot requires a bit of lead.


My shooting student Joe Wood always argues that it takes just as much skill to shoot a dove on a powerline from the back of a pickup going 45mph as it does when standing still and the dove is flying by at 45mph. He says the lead is the same if the distance to the dove is the same.
