[QUOTE="yobuck, post: 1549693, member: 12443"] Well if theres a 2 week season, and the rut is happening, what choice is there? As for calling your own shots, that might work (sometime) but other times it wont, especially at the longer distances in mountainous terrain with varying wind patterns, and even more so if trees are involved. Regardless of ones ability, that all is meaningless after the bullet exits the muzzle. Even at 1000 yds the bullet has arrived almost as fast as you can blink. So not much time to recover from recoil and spot a hit on your own. Add 6" of snow and you probably wont see it, and maybe a spotter wont either. And then the tree branches. I mean I just never miss these kind of shots, and I know my hold and follow thru were perfect as usual. But friend, you just did. lol [/QUOTE]
