How to aim a charge shot with bow ?

[Ramphy]

Basically what the title says.

Let's say that I started to charge a shot while circling. Now, I'd like to send my arrow in that Deviljho's head, so I have to aim high. I press R to enter aiming mode but then, if I am still holding X, how do I use my right stick to aim ? Or is there a way to get the left stick to be used to aim ? And notice it's the same if I invert X and R in the control options. So is it just impossible to aim after I started charging or did I miss something ?

Just... Why a Deviljho? Why would you want to slay that beautiful beast

I was asking in general since none of the weapons you use seems to have any blocking. I don't know about you, but I prefer to just block over dodging, mainly because even the block on GS does the status damage on a monster (eg:slime)! I just make sure to dodge the too blunt attacks and have high sharpness. I've been doing this ever since MH1 and it works like a charm! Believe it or not, I've never needed more than 5 whetstones in one quest! But I go with low armor (<400def) for extra diffculty

Oh, evasion+1 was why you managed to dodge so many hits.

Yeah, I prefer doging in general. I even have armors with Evasion+3 (Zinogre U)
I like when it moves, not charging a sword for ten minutes to miss, then be hit for ten minutes blocking and doing nothing else.
But yeah, that's just me, I understand that blocking can be important to other people.
