Now lets talk about the right side, the right side is going to be very similar to my left side with the exception of my support hand. I’m going to lean into the tree with my palm. I’m going to lean into the tree to keep my hand from sliding down as I’m shooting.
I’ll grasp the rifle with my thumb and forefingers and pull the rifle forend against the tree. Again my foot position is pretty much the same leaning into the tree. This gives me a pretty stable shooting platform.
These tips apply to me because I’m right handed. If you’re left handed, then they will simply be reversed. The difference between these two techniques is concealment and support, around the left side of the tree I have more support to make an accurate shot. Around the right side of the tree I have more concealment to keep me hidden from my target. Only you will be able to decide which technique you will be able to apply in your situation.
