Typical shot distance

We recently went to the Crow reservation in Montana with the goal of ELR hunt. We shot one at 643 and one at 1234 with 15MPH winds. Key is being able to read the wind and use a good ballistics app with properly set up rifle meaning dialed in correctly at 100, scope correction factor applied, trued BC with actual velocity if you plan to shoot past 600 yards

Daddaman, so on your 643 and 1234 yard shots how did you monitor wind speed through the entire range of those shots? With 15 mph wind gusts where you were set up for your shot, how do you know it was 15 mph wind at further down range distances between you and the animal? How do you compensate for different wind speeds and gusts scattered through those distances of a shot?
