Tracing and Tracking with the Monocular
Face the Target
When you’re tracking something with a monocular, make sure you know where you’re aiming before you put the monocular to your eyes.

Turn Your Head to Track the Target
If you are observing an object that is traveling through space, you must keep your eyes focused on it. You should not allow yourself to blink or close your eyes. Your vision will blur if you do so.
