[QUOTE="WildRose, post: 1062682, member: 30902"] Most important is to give the critter time to expire before departing your hide. Be patient, watch in the scope if at all possible until you are dead sure it's no longer breathing. Next if you are not alone, leave a partner at the location so they can maintain the same line of sight. This is particularly important in rough, brushy, or heavy forest because your perspective changes dramatically once you leave your shooting position. Very important at long range is to establish landmarks along the line of sight to the target so that, especially if you are alone you can keep your line of travel the same as your line of sight to the greatest degree possible. Like you I will leave something at the spot from which I shoot for the purposes of being able to do the above. [/QUOTE]
