Well, since it's been ages since I've seen any of you on, I decided to share my meager learning experiences with Boomer, after playing and learning from the "experts"
To hook a backshot, you have to fire above 50 degrees, into the wind(which must be going at least horizontal, if not upwards, else you shoot yourself), at less than 3/4 strength. Note that you cannot go more than 1/2 a screen like this, generally speaking.
To shoot into the wind without backshot(so that you arc forwards and slightly down), go under 40 degrees(I usually do 35)
To shoot vertically, go with a "neutral"(neither left nor right, or very minor bias) wind, and shoot at about 80+ degrees in the direction desired(if you shoot into the wind, you could get a backshot high angle)
Any other shots are pretty straightforward.
For Nak shot 2, try to gauge where a shot 1 would land. Then cut about 1/2 an inch of power from there(unless you're shooting vertically)
My $0.02
