The result of aiming high? (6)
I believe the answer is:
upshot
'the result' is the definition.
(synonyms)
'aiming high?' is the wordplay.
I cannot really see how this works, but
'high?' could be 'up' ('up' is associated in meaning with 'high') and 'up' is present in the answer.
The remaining letters 'shot' is a valid word which might be clued in a way I don't understand.
This explanation may well be incorrect...
'of' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for upshot that I've seen before include "anti-aircraft fire?" , "skier" , "increased exposure" , "Outcome, consequence" , "Event" .)
