    Funny how certain regions can be significantly different climate wise, even though as the crow flies they aren't that far apart.
    Last spring was the same for my mate. Fantastic and one of the best in a long long time, yet this year is a complete 180 with one of the worst.
    His station has had 60mm of rain since end of August.
    The farm and surrounding area is very dry with some creeks and springs dried up.
    Even deer numbers are seemingly a bit less, but they are still in great condition for now.

    Out beyond ideas of wrongdoing, and right-doing, there is a field. I will meet you there.

    The obligation is to use a "proper" projectile. Surprisingly there are lotsa rubbish pills for sale. Dudes who tell you ... bought this packet of ammo and it "looks" good. Next they tell you.. I am sure I hit that hind and it just walked away.
