hoo is right about the lockoff but.... not the distances. there are better places/distances.

took alot of time to find and ill show on a video soon but its very hard to do and tricky/rare.

Thank you for a great guide, this changes a lot ;)
Hunt with your head not with your itchy trigger finger.. and things probably turn out a lot more successful and fun ;)

Would a deployable tower work well so it adds to stability?
