Plenty of animals there, what a fuck up, bugger!

What you missed? Id be happy with seeing that

They did look tasty, shame on you for missing

There was more sika on that face than i have actually seen in total since i started hunting in 2009, I don't get to see enough deer to miss them when i do ;-)

yeah, starting to really enjoying using the camera and taking some video, didn't have the camera set up right so it could be better. couldn't believe our luck with how many deer popped out (it was all luck) the one my mate wanted wasn't presenting shots and he tried to give it one before it disappeared, any other day it probably would've stood side on for long enough to get one in him.

Bugger, some great footage though and plenty of deer. A rushed shot on an animal moving away is always risky.... Many of us have been there and missed that sort of shot as well. As I have got more experienced I've learnt to be more patient with my hunting which really helps. The last trip we did we gave up a shot on a mob of deer across a gully as just couldn't get a good rest for a steady shot. What that meant was that an hour later we encountered another two nearby and managed to bag one with a sit down shot over 100m. Patience on the first deer seen meant we didn't spook the area and got another chance and bagged one. Missing is always frustrating but he'll it's just fun being out there and seeing animals.

some nice footage there
we have all been there, missed a sitter, some of us have done it many times
your next shot will be spot on

awesome fat animals

Yep, watched it over and over and over..........good condition all right . Next hunt will be out that way I am thinking.
