When quartering make life easy and go to the bottom of the eye fillet on the inside and leave 1-2 ribs on the hind quarter. The start of the rib eye starts between the 4th and fifth rib counting up from the neck. Don't forget when you shoot it make an x between the eyes and ears or aim an inch above the eyebrow line. There is a homekill guy oz from down south explains it well on utube

Open sights yes,

But remember if its a friendly one that you shoot from 5 metres using a scoped hunting rifle the scope sight picture will be inch and a half high, so bullet will land inch and a half low..
