Thread: Velvet Watch

Bagheera...I wasnt having a go...not in slightest,its just one of them things that jerks my chain.....
in recent years (the last 10) we have seen ,what I consider,a shocking race to see who can shoot big stags first.....each year the question...are they hard under the velvet yet??? will this huge 12-14-16 strip back and colour up???
years back it was very much frowned upon to shoot velvety stags for reasons I gave above....now days with higher numbers its a bit different BUT we hunting folk should be doing our bit for population control and taking out hinds first if we can...this time of year is hardest...but fawn tastes yummy LOL.

I do shoot or shoot at(cocky bugger missed easy 100 yard shot some 300 yards from car) velvety stag..... but not often.
to each thier own .
