When you finally get your chance after hours of tracking, the adrenaline hits fast...what do you personally do to settle in before squeezing off a hunting shot?
 
Briefly draw a deep breath, ease it out while taking proper stance or position, relax my torso, draw the rifle up to position, repeat the breath in, let half of it out while gaining proper sight picture, apply pressure on trigger until it breaks. Cycle the action and see what needs to be done next. (Kill-shot, track wounded animal, or retrieve carcass - depending on results of first shot because there are no guarantees in this game)
