john robbo 30 Posted February 20, 2010 Report Share Posted February 20, 2010 Its been a trying time snow ice windless mornings and fog, none very productive as far as stalking is concerned. Then when things have gone right a run of misses 6 in all 4 different clients in differing scenarios.(all checked for zero and ok) Just one of those things. Anyway the run of bad luck seems to have ebbed and now the deer are playing and the weathers better(ish). Shooting has also finished and the deer seem more settled. Anyway not failed to connect apart from wed night. So had a good week so far and am out tonight and all day tomorrow. 2 misses at the start of the week but a good run. Father and his sons first deer.

mj robson 8 Posted February 20, 2010 Report Share Posted February 20, 2010 Well done John. I'm fortunate up here with the ground I've got, I've had about 40 Does so far this winter and only 2 blank outings. We were stalking last week and counted 31 Roe one morning, the last four stalks have accounted for 3 doubles and a tripple cull. I always find things tend to get easier up here when we get into February. Cheers, Mark. Quote Link to post
Squirrel_Basher 17,100 Posted February 20, 2010 Report Share Posted February 20, 2010 Does show more and more as the year goes on .The need to feed the foetus cant be stopped therefore more chance of a shot . Quote Link to post

mj robson 8 Posted February 21, 2010 Report Share Posted February 21, 2010 It was nice out this morning, clear and crispy, with a great sunrise. The client shot his first ever deer and a second just for good measure! I only shoot young does at this time of the season, only a couple of more stalks and i'll be done. That makes 11 from the last 5 stalks. Cheers, Mark. Quote Link to post
