    The one thing i have learnt (thanks Craigc and more so Tahr) is you gott sit on ya arse for a bit, glass and glass and glass. My method is to check all obvoius spots first and when nothing presents i start looking under the bushes, even trying to find little holes in the bush they may be tucked up in to get sun, sometime they are right there but tucked up. On the weekend for instance, we got to a look out at say 4, glassed for 30mins and nothing, i got bored and went for a quick wonder, can back 20 mins later, still nothing, nek minute a spiker out. I mentioned to my hunting buddy there will be more, none seen, nek minute a hind pops out. Watched them for an hour on this slip then decided to fill the freezer, as oneshot says they are like ghosts. they may even be sitting behind a bush or whatever in the middle of the slip the whole time, also little knobs on the spurs can have an animal standing there surveying the area or getting last of sun etc

    Still learning though
