    First stag for the year.

    So I've been out for a little look on a mates place, as in the past I have spoked a really nice looking 10-12. Just doing the slow walk thinking oh you'll won't see any animals. Funny really as evey time I've been there I have shot something, rounding the bend I spot what looked to be a log, but after looking for a bit I didn't know that logs ears were moving. After looking for a bit longer I ended up spotting about 6 deer, got lined up on them and had my twin brother line up on the bigger stag, with the 150 gr sst in the 308 it didn't even know what hit it. Easy not to smelly stay meat for tea now.

    Haha I'm the one with the smaller head! It's not about size but how you use it. And was taken with my phone to.
