Squirrel_Basher 17,100 Posted October 16, 2010 Report Share Posted October 16, 2010 Out first thing this morning for a well earned stalk as its been work ,work ,work lately.Parked up between two farms and set off on a circuit ,meeting the farmer out moving the electric fence and making him jump a bit i think .Tried the lower ground here and as expected the usual does were out but no buck .Theres a very big buck here but he spends most of his time over the river on the neighbours and off piste as it were .No sign of him but saw five does and managed to stalk in very close in the fog .Up over the top and onto the next ground and was faced with a field full of deer looking very charming in the fog . Eight does and a buck at the far end ,would be wouldnt it.The fog undoubtably helped in allowing the liberty of sneaking past the others to get to the buck .Keeping in the shadows ,i made up the 100 metres to get within roughly ninenty yards .On sticks ,another liberty with so many deer in one field and shot him to which the field cleared bar one doe who stared at the fallen buck near her and allowed me a pic .Gralloched him just as the sun began to burn through .Perfect .Looking at the pic ,he was infact a small six but a cull nonetheless .
