Editing Spotlighting (section)

==Technique==
The spotting and shooting often take place from a moving vehicle. Experienced drivers on familiar territory (such as farmers on their own property) may turn off the vehicle headlights to minimize the distractions.

The most common vehicles used are light quiet,[[four-wheel drive]] trucks and [[Ute (vehicle)|utilities]]. A team may consist of three persons: the driver, the shooter, and the spotter, that can communicate trough two way voice activated radios, so shouting is avoided.  The shooter and spotter stand side by side behind the cab, holding onto a bar or bracket at the back of the top of the cabs roof, which allows them a good 360 degree view.  The spotter sweeps the surrounding countryside with a powerful hand-held spotlight with a tightly focused beam.

Spotlighting can be conducted by two persons where the driver operates the spotlight or alone where the driver spotlights using a remote mounted spotlight or [[automotive lighting]] and shoots from the driver's seat of the vehicle while it is in motion. So that’s driving, spotting with spotlight, aiming and shooting with a rifle. 

Lightweight lamps, torches and hand-held spotlights that can be secured to the rifle or shotgun, would enable hunters to spotlight with ease and safety, and by foot, but not a fun as riding along at high speed at night shooting wild animals, all while allowing for more control and safer use of a firearm, with proper practical techniques.

 With a slow walking pace, the hunter will move forward in an open field with a near by tree line,  while scanning for eye-shine. If spotted out of range, the light is typically turned off and the careful and quiet approach toward the game is made in the dark.
 Once a target is found, the hunter will typically hold the mesmerized animal in the glare of the spot light and shoot for the area between its glowing eyes.
Do not to forget to properly address the game, should be used for food, and not go to waste.<ref>{{Cite news |title=Spotlighting rabbits on foot – Sporting Shooters' Association of Australia (SSAA) |language=en-US |work=Sporting Shooters' Association of Australia (SSAA) |url=https://www.ssaa.org.au/?ss_news=spotlighting-rabbits-on-foot |access-date=9 February 2023}}</ref>
