[QUOTE="yobuck, post: 1413616, member: 12443"] Not sure you understood my (spotter) comment. I'm not talking about a spotting scope, I'm talking about another person doing the spotting when we shoot at animals while long range hunting. Then there is also the recovery aspect to consider in the event you are successful. In many cases you just don't walk over there and recover the animal for a whole host of reasons including the possibility of a large stream to cross. And when you do get over there it might look entirely different than it did from where you shot from, making finding a dead animal difficult at beast. So if it sounds like I'm encouraging you to have a buddy along, its because i am, and yes the buddy might just be the lucky one. We can pound our own chests all we want about our ability, but when live animal targets are involved at l/r, that's not enough. Use a spotter or don't do it, is my suggestion. [/QUOTE]
