Despite shooting my first white tail in 5 trips to the island, this really was the highlight of the trip.
Hope you enjoy it as much as I did.

wonderful to watch. thanks boner
Awesome footage you gained a great memory there
Once it sees you it knows something is there but can’t quite figure it out. Well done on the filming.
Aren't they just precious,in the early 1980,Long Harry block,had one come wandering along and just like at the one minute mark I got an arrow on the string waiting for the gap,waiting, waiting ,after half hour I stalked the 11mtrs....Grey ghost
Well done Boner
That's cool

That was one chubby wee yearling :)
Lovely bit of footage
Fantastic
He seemed to wind you but then he gave himself a wee clean, then off grazing again.
Pretty cool
Well done on the footage
Very Cool. Looked like it was in good condition.
thats awesome, is it a yearling ?
Nice bit of filming.
Wow! Such awesome footage. I love doing my videos, and I know how hard it is to get everything right. That was fantastic, and way better than shooting another one.
I don’t believe itwinded me, but heard me breath and I thought that was that, but itjust carried on doing its thing.Quote:

Identify your target beyond all doubt because you never miss (right?) and I'll be missed.
How close were you at the closest?

Around 6 feet I reckon.Quote:

Really put it into perspective, get the wind right and sit the fk still works just as well.
Cheers man.Quote:

Nice work, very very few people would have been within 6 feet of a wild deer, especially in such a relaxed state.Quote:

I didn’t want to disturb them, as we’d seen a good stag there the previous evening. It wasn’t long before one picked me up and they were off. Fortunately no barking..
Simply amazing footage mate... heart thumping just watching it (also waiting for the bang, was pretty stoked it never came)
Favourite bit was when it kept peering back thru the gap in the trunks... almost like it was trying to catch you out, made me chuckle.
Super cool :cool::cool:
Congratulations, very well done.
Awesome video, what an experience.
Yes great footage. The 4.40 mark also made me laugh playing peekaboo around tree.Quote:
