Title: Visualizing Degrees and Minutes at 100 yards
Post by: DaddyFatty on April 23, 2013, 01:55:21 PM
When discussing degrees and minutes with others I use this illustration. If you can imagine a circle of 360 people holding hands, they would form a circle with a 100 yard radius (200 yard diameter). The distance between each set of holding hands would be 60".

Each person would represent one degree and each inch between holding hands would represent 1 minute of angle.

This illustration works well for younger shooters.
