bigmac 97kt 13,812 Posted September 27, 2013 Author Report Share Posted September 27, 2013 Cheers jeff and Den the neck shot is a hard shot to take as you need to hit it in the right place to snap the spine the one i did last night was only because i could not see the kill zone for the weeds but i could see the neck and placed the pellet at the base of its head and took it out cleanly but i do prefer the head shot atvbmac :thumbs: 1 Quote Link to post
Daz39 962 Posted September 27, 2013 Report Share Posted September 27, 2013 I nearly shot a frog, but wasn't sure if it was in season, so left it. I had a very nice walk around with Sean - THE END. (only got told off once for not lifting my feet!! - bonus) Nothing about Mac, I walked the top fields, mortuary, over the hospital field and back round the paddocks. Saw ONE set of eyes in the top field right on the hedge line but it was away before I got within 100 yrds.... nowt about. It started raining about 12:30 so packed up and came yem. 1 Quote Link to post
Daz39 962 Posted September 27, 2013 Report Share Posted September 27, 2013 Was good to be out with Sean, very different to Mac, both great hunters though. Enjoyed a change of tack and approach last night, just wish there had been some rabbits out.... Quote Link to post
