Would be great to tag it with a laser & your mate can see through his optics exactly where you were looking.

Do this a lot when hunting at night, its great for pointing out possums when you can see the eyes but the shooter next to you is looking at a different part of the tree because they haven’t seen the eyes yet. Great for getting guided in when you shoot a deer in the scrub/gorse too. Most of the time, as the person doing the recovery you can’t actually see the laser if the scrub is thick, or if you are crossing a gully, but the spotter can see the laser and your torch and guide you in. Once you get reasonably close the laser is easier to see.
