[QUOTE="rufous, post: 3180, member: 122"] Brent, after I typed the question I got to wondering about that. I thought I had duplicated as near as possible the way I was holding the rifle when I shot at the target as when I shot at the doe but after thinking it through some more I think I may have been leaning back against the tree with my upper back and possibly also my right shoulder against the tree, whereas when I shot at the target I was sitting against my truck tire but leaning forward such that just my low back was against the tire. So maybe that made the difference. I will have to try shooting at the target again with my upper back and right shoulder against a solid support and see if I get high shots. Rufous. [/QUOTE]
