i firmly believe that hunting is in the blood and no matter how you try you cant help it so if your lucky enough to have miles of permission or none at all your going to be out there doing it, its just how you do it that makes the differance, you do a bit of poaching unobtrusivley with what ever method that you chose, with as little disturbance as possable i dont see the harm and i know some guys pay to shoot over land they have or rent it but think of it this way what would you rather have to odd deer dissapearing with someone poaching it or a bunch of contract stalkers moving in and wiping m

im takin no sides here but mabe if a bit honest deer stalkin was made more readyly avaiable to your avarage working man on a low income and a family to rear without having to have qualifications for just about everything to do with deer stalking nowadays to line the pockets of various bodys much of the deer poaching wouldnt be happening ..the thing is its getting that its beyond the pocket of keen guys that want to be out there doing it and learning as they go instead of tests for everything ..which in its selfs fair enough if it wasnt that its riding on the back of hard cash up front id think

anyone ever watched this before
nastybilly replied to nastybilly's topic in Deer Stalking & Management
i doubt it myself john i think if its mam was killed or something the chances of a kid even being fosterd would be a chance in a million im not even sure if i was right in saying this it was just a possiblilty that had crossed my mind when i seen it, iv never seen it before myself but like you say they always surprize you...iv seen cattle do it and even if they have there own calf try and bully a calf from another cow. we get it here year on year ..thanks for your reply john -
anyone ever watched a doe trying to steal another does kid? ....i seen two adult does running eachother ragged lastnite, at first i thought it might be a yearling doe come back to join its mother again but when me and a mate watched them and i could see more clearly when i glassed them they were both adults and a one kid running with them it probly went on for round about half an hour and then we lost them, i think they lay down in a huge thresh bed and we moved on and left them to it ..whats your thoughts .. i think maybe one had lost her kid and was trying to nick the others
