Lower on the body when the sun is lower in the sky, "east" (right) on the body when the sun is in the east, et cetera.
I just shoot in random places. For the past couple weeks, I've been having more consistent results on my left side than my right. Who knows why; I've been giving the right side a break and carrying on.
Bruises make convenient markers. Avoid when fresh and purple, then resume using the area once they turn greenish.
