thursodog 353 Posted December 30, 2013 Report Share Posted December 30, 2013 (edited) Hi folks. Don't normally post my roe pics but decided to start getting involved a bit plus one more shooter is better than one more anti I reckons. Got these 2 just as it was getting dark, my perm is 2 minutes from the house and is a great place to unwind at the weekends and when the light nights come back in. I had been out for about 3 hours and was heading back to the motor to head home when low and behold these 2 were in the field next to my motor. I was lucky that there was a dyke between myself and them an quickly dropped behind it and crawled on all 4s for a sneaky look to see that they had not seen me. I carefully propped the .243 on top of the dyke and shot the smaller of the 2 which was side on at about 25 yards, dropped on the spot. The larger of the 2 trotted off but did not see me in the gloom and started making its way round the field looking at the dropped deer, a quick bark stopped it and it was game over. A great end to the day. Cheers Chris. Edited December 30, 2013 by thursodog 1 Quote Link to post

thursodog 353 Posted December 31, 2013 Author Report Share Posted December 31, 2013 Cheers for the positive comments folks. I hope all of you have success in what's left of this year and into next year. The bloody rain has not stopped here for 2 days now and I'm climbing the walls. Had a drive round yesterday but they are keeping their heads down. There's over 20 roe causing havoc for the local farmers that I help out so hopefully It'll improve and I can get out for a stalk. Atb Chris. 1 Quote Link to post
