Yep. Uphill, down hill, kneeling, sitting etc. One thing I've learned is to stay on my feet and utilize cover, as kneeling makes it very difficult to reposition if necessary. Also this is why it's often better to shoot lower poundage...I can shoot 70 indoors no problem, but cold/tired/adrenalin/kneeling is a different thing altogether. At 60 i can hold as long as i need to and still be accurate from any position. Everyone will have a different ideal draw weight.

As far as improving your "long hold" shooting, make sure your draw length is correct. you do need to practice, However you will reach a point at which you plateau, this is where work in the gym will help. Build up your upper body especially your back and it gets easier.
