Squirrel_Basher 17,100 Posted December 6, 2009 Report Share Posted December 6, 2009 (edited) Shot this doe in the week from a place that i love to stalk .The deer are very predictable with wind and weather and the day in question was no different .Stalked into a stiff ,cold wind and found this doe bedded against a hedge enjoying the winter sun .Got into a shooting position and knocked her over with a neck shot at about 70 yards approx without her knowing a thing about it .Very large doe .Onwards and towards the quarry here where the deer hang out as well .No exception today either and i glassed a shed buck on his back legs reaching for berries it looked like .Something else caught my eye and a good look revealed a fox asleep outside an earth entrance,something ive seen more than once. He looked up once but the sun was in his eyes and i took him with a head shot free hand at about 50 yards.On to the next place over the road and spyed a doe in some reeds around a pond .She was staring in my direction so the surprise element was out .Ranged her at 214 and decided to take her from there .Prone position and over she went ,shot in the chest .Another good doe in prime condition . The pair at the dealers ,44lb and 37lb respectively. Edited December 6, 2009 by foxdropper Quote Link to post
