"Ali barbers slipper" It walked very badly and had to be shot. I allowed the client 1 shot as it was on the edge of his limit, he clean missed it off the sticks so I took his rifle and shot it in the neck @ 145m's. (I had explained the need to cull it and if he missed his chance to pass the rifle). He understood and wasn't put out I shot his gun better then him......Its about confidence and practice, and doing the right thing. He had shot a doe earlier that morning so was confident. She was a little thin but not in bad nick considering, she was also in young. |

he couldn't but he was off to my right by about 2 yards so it probably was a near miss. Still better than a bad hit. |

Should have been on my holiday today (pig shooting in Bavaria, which went tits up), so having a few days off to put high seats up and sort out some doe boxes. Any hows my body clock woke me up this morning so I thought I'd call in on the nursery I look after (alone Max hads done his back chewing with a high seat on friday)(get well for the end of the week fella, we have some deer to cull in Norfolk). So I arrived and looked in MY usual field only slots and no deer, so over the road onto the ground Max usually stalks , Nothing till near the end when a last glass exposed 4 deer 2 big bucks and 2 does eating the new shoots.So onto the sticks I clicked on the red dot on my varipoint and settled the rifle on the sticks. I had to wait a wee while for the doe to expose her flank I than put the dot on her heart and then I unleashed the 139 privvi sp, she stood up on her front feet kicking her back legs out almost verticle and ran 10m's before expireing on the hoof. The other 3 startled and ran about 40m's parralell to me. They were still within my safe shot area but the doe was stood infront of the biggest buck. I had reloaded and stood still on the sticks for about 7-8 minutes before she stepped to the left and away from the buck. I re-aquired her chest slid off the saftey and repeated the excersise once more. She feel dead to shot. So I dragged one to the other after making sure they were dead and making my rifle safe. Had a photo or 2, ![]() and began to gralloch the beasts. It was evident from the deers reactions the shots were good. The gralloch agreed with this. ![]() My 6.5 is set up for clients so I have to wear the mod (for karl ) (The mod is an alloy custom and is just over 550gms and over barrel so it doesn't bother the balance at all) and it is useful on this venue, I also have to use factory ammo (privvi)(£10 a box) through it for insurance needs. But I have seen so many clients kill so many deer with this outfit I no longer hand load for it for my own use. |

Yesterday.![]() A nice day today and after bollocking up a stalk and a dog walker knackering another we were blessed with a late doe. ![]() Tonight was balls'ed up when a tractor came and top dressed the field we were in with little time to move, when we did we met another dog walker who had lost a dog in the wood apparently last seen chasing a deer. |
