Squirrel_Basher 17,100 Posted July 17, 2018 Report Share Posted July 17, 2018 Tis a nice uniform head mate .How much did they charge to score them . Quote Link to post
firthy 54 Posted July 17, 2018 Author Report Share Posted July 17, 2018 was just £35 for the one that made medal the other was free of charge. They changed the drying period from 90 to 30 as they reckon it didn't make much difference in weight change. you been out much? Quote Link to post
Squirrel_Basher 17,100 Posted July 18, 2018 Report Share Posted July 18, 2018 This dry weather has altered behaviour to the extreme mate .Places that were a dead cert now have very few or no deer on them .Seeing more with the thermal in unusual places than I'd expect .Went to a place yesterday evening that is usually good for a buck or two but never saw any .Spotted two does on another farm but no buck .Hopefully the rut will be better .I'm down Matt's Saturday so have to see.
