[QUOTE="Kenster-Boy, post: 75011, member: 2330"] Well have you ever hunted elk in the redwoods? I didn't think so! If you have never been to an old growth forest, then let me describe it to ya. It is like walking through a jungle that has a cannopy about 100 yards above ya. Visibility is no more than 10 feet in a lot of areas. SO sneeking up on em in stuff like that is next to impossible. The only open ground is HUGE clear cuts. Well if the animals are in the clear cuts then you can't sneek across the cuts to get close and you make too much noise going through the brush! Kind of a catch 22. So it may be necessary to take a LONG shot. And I need all the help that I can get because with a 15% sucess rate on this hunt last year (cow hunt)I need every capability and advantage that I can get. I don't mean to sound like a jerk but that is just the way that it is and not to mention that I have always wanted to make a long range kill. I have been practicing for 2 years spent TONS of money and obained the nesessary skills to pull off such a shot. So why not go for the gusto? [/QUOTE]
