Merry Christmas everyone!
I call a farmer and ask if I could shoot some goats in his property and the answer was, yes but it is the last time till late next year.
Fair enough, I completely understand it.
Start walk and spot a mob of 6 goats heading up hill and that kind changed all my plans, but let's keep moving.
Had a look around and to my surprise I spot just the head of a very young fallow buck, by the time I aim at it he was fast on his way thru the scrub, so again change plans.
I keep walking and drop into the creek but nothing there, I could smell deer but no where to be seen. So I went back to my track and up hill I go. Not long after I get in the first ridge I start to glass around the only thing I could see was sheep and more sheep, then again there is the young buck looking at me, I only could see from his neck up, I put the crosshairs in and shoot, clear miss, second shot and down he went, I run to check it and what a shot, for such a "small" animal a neck shot is the sweetest you can get.
First goat hunt with the AR, no goat but a very yummy Xmas lunch!
All the best everyone, have a brilliant XMAS and a stunning and prosper new year!
