Odin,

Zee and Gregg hit the highest points, terrain and crawling. I would add that getting away from roads also is pretty high on the list. Like deer and elk, most hunters will drive around and glass, and like to use that 400 yard rifle that they had specially built.

I've never taken one with a pistol, but quite a few with rifles, and no shots over a hundred yards. Several I could have probably gotten closer. Crawling with a bow sucks. A rifle is only slightly easier, and a pistol can be a joy, if not on a sling. All gear close the body, and not flopping, gun, binos, rangefinders, whatever.

Another nice thing is that they can be hunted all day long. You might have more wind during the mid-day hours, but that can be used to your advantage.

While I never tried cardboard cut-outs, I always figured the moo cow silhouette made a lot more sense than an antelope ;^)
