August 5, 2019The Legacy Becomes Me
August 26, 2019During hunting season, it can take days or weeks to locate the animal that you are pursuing and you may only have seconds to take a shot. As hunters, we must quickly evaluate how much time we have to build a shooting position, establish the distance to the target, wind speed, and shot angles.
Don’t let your hunt be the first time to try out a shooting position or engage a target at a specific distance. Knowing your limitations as a marksman, before heading afield will help to determine what is ethical for your hunting scenario. Because each situation is so vastly different, there are a few fundamental positions that you will want to practice before your hunt in-order to increase your level of confidence and downrange success. This includes, prone, sitting, kneeling and standing positions.
