[QUOTE="yobuck, post: 936325, member: 12443"] Well lets remember snipers could well have return fire coming back at them also. Therefore its imperative for them not to be giving up their location. Preparing for a solid first round hit is one thing. But a miss is a miss, and wether caused by an unseen tree limb or an error in calculating is of little consequence its still a miss. Evaluate and shoot again asap works better for us than lolly gagging around. Were dealing with trees on every situation. You could be following a deer for several hundred yards without a shot oppurtunity. Especially with a buck in rut. The nice wide openings between trees are as a rule not where he will stop. So when an oppurtunity presents itself take it now and dont be waiting for a better one that may never come. This year on opening morning about an hour into the glassing my son picked up a nice buck that had come out of a hollow. Within a few seconds 3 more appeared in close proximity. The gun was already setup on a heavy duty shooting tripod. I ranged the first buck at 635 yds. my son shot and hit it well on the first shot but it didnt go down. Within about 3 minits without another range or touching the scope 3 shooters had 3 bucks on the ground with the same single shot gun. 9 shots total, 2 hit twice, last one was 750 plus yds. Would i have wanted it on tape? No i wouldnt especially with sound as im sure it was tense and intence. Now the year before for the entire season we never had an oppurtunity to fire a shot. Closing the deal is the most important part of any deal wether its selling something or hunting. Find what works for you where you hunt and dont be worried about what others think or do. [/QUOTE]
