I shoot some out at 6 to 7 hundred yards but teach Archery to new shooters often and have that issue with breath control with most of them, just like a friend has with his long range classes

Very difficult to get someone to halt a shot and start over again. One thing that has worked for me was to simply re-assure the shooter that there comes a time when there is nothing else you can do but stop, re-group / fix something, and start again. Normally their position is screwed up and that is what is causing the whole thing. That assumes the shooter is in reasonably good physical condition.
