When reaching your position

as a shooter,


it is advisable to measure out certain landmarks around you so that you can better estimate the actual distance and speed of the passing animals, with the EL Range TA e.g.

As Stefaan also covers longer distances when shooting, he opted for a Z8i 2,3-18x56 (with, BTF, SLP and TL). His EL Range 10x42 helps him to correctly measure how close or far away the game is. Thanks to Stefaan Rotthier for sharing some insights into driven hunts in Belgium with us!
