Settle down people,
We're way ahead of ourselves if you're already hunting camel jockeys. (That's in lesson #9, costs extra! lol) The reality is Dimitri, from what I've picked up over the years (nothing is 100%) but what will give you away...in the forest, almost always sound, in the city...movement, in desert or very high altitudes (thinner air) smell. Stillness is our friend and for the guys that have done this stuff for a living (God bless them) they can attest to what it's like to stay very still for hours at a time. I'm sure my friends with military backgrounds here know some of the things I'm talking about. Everyone tends to admire the romanticized Hollywood version of a sniper, but what happens when you suddenly need to pee?
Anyway, I started this thing is jest, let's keep it in fun. There was some mention of camoflage bras in another posting and I think I'll just ban those from the School of Stealth altogether, no need to be that sneaky!

If you meant me, then you're stealthier than the rest of us. Read the last few postings in back from overseas trip

Well no trees and bushes then the grass and small shrubs while prone, and if in sand then you need to learn to use the highs and low points of the ground to mask you from something (ie hide in natural trenches if possible)
Sound is a given, you must try to make as little as possible, but myself I think visability is also important. You want to "jump on" your target so they do not notice you till your right ontop of the animal ready to shoot.

Bushmaster,
I dont know when I hear them they make alot of noise atleast here anyways. Point of being as quite as possible is to limit noises that may scare them away.
