That's happened twice to me now. I'm pissed I didn't get deer but happy with decision NOT to shoot at what I could see. Absolutely stoked with my wee black bitch,she stayed calm enough .happy times ahead. Be SAFE out there folks.
    Good on ya mate. Rule number four in action.
    It takes 43 muscle's to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger pull.
    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!
    Rule 1: Treat every firearm as loaded
    Rule 2: Always point firearms in a safe direction
    Rule 3: Load a firearm only when ready to fire
    Rule 4: Identify your target beyond all doubt
    Rule 5: Check your firing zone
    Rule 6: Store firearms and ammunition safely
    Rule 7: Avoid alcohol and drugs when handling firearms
