If moving long distances between legs this method is going to cost you alot of time. I have found, in my limited experience at land nav, the ability to terrain associate cannot be substituted but then again I am a beginner at this.

Hi Surgicalcric,
you right, a big part of land nav is intuitive.Myself when I do land nav I dont take an accurate aim, but only a general one.And it is still very accurate.Sometime I dont take any aim, but I just "easy'' looking at my compass.
I'm just trying to find some accurate and 'field expedient' ways to navigate, especially when you dont have a compass, or, per example, you are in a flat desert with no compass, no map, and no aiming point.
May be this is my ARTY heritage...
