Just on 14 months since gumboot guiding started, this morning saw deer number 150 fall over, with more clients tomorrow who knows where the weekend will end.
Morning started at 530 heading to block
Conversation covers the usual how far can you shoot? How many have you shot etc etc.
400 yard no worries they reckon, guide smiles and thinks nice easy morning for me.
I should add the weather was shit, rain, wind, snow and penguins flying past in the clouds with snow patches still on the ground up high.
Turn of road into block and there's 10 I see in the scrub, quick stalk sees us inside 250 with the lead hind very aware we are there, bang shot goes about 1 meter high.....
Back to side buy side around next corner and there's 6 standing there bang bang bang no deer harmed, about this time guide gets a bit frustrated wishing he was at home buy the fire....
After a walk to the top of the hill eventually deer number 150 died and to make us haters hate it more it was a bloody 270.
Seen maybe 60 animals and 4 good stags with antlers still on, which seems rather late.
Unfortunately it was so cold that my pics where limited,I'll add some more tomorrow as the weather is supposedly going to be better.
Learnt a lot and seen heaps in the last 14months, seen terrific shooting out to 700 and terrible shooting at 10, all calibers kill and vortex scopes suck.
Enjoy you weekend
