Thought i'd set up a post to see how people went over the weekend.
My story is one of close but no cigar.
I was stalking along a low ridge when i looked down into a small sunny grassy clearing and spotted a Deer through the rubbish.
I didn't have shot so i snuck down towards the clearing a bit but when i looked up could no longer see the deer.
I decided to sneak down into the clearing and just as i got to the edge i spotted the body of a Deer feeding to my left, it was broadside on but i couldn't see its head or neck, wanting to identify my target beyond doubt i crouched down to get a better view and found out that it was a yearling the hard way, the hind saw me and bolted, i managed to bring the rifle up and find the yearling running in my scope but just when i was about to give it some lead it disappeared into the scrub.
Bit gutted, always nice to come home with some meat but thats hunting isn't it.
Atleast i was out there doing it!
How did you guys go
