    Lake Lyndon area

    Good evening all

    I was up at lake Lyndon last weekend revisiting some old haunts from around 8 years ago but saw bugger all, has the place been shot out?

    was a good day for a walk anyway and even got the kids up on the hillside which they loved

    It's well over hunted now! Had a military exercise out there and there was atleast 5-8 different rifles going for a shoot during the 1 day I was out there

    Bugger I had a good spot out there, maybe mid winter there may be something still hanging around a valley.

    Dont waste your time chasing every last fps, it doesnt matter in the real world, it wont make a difference, all it will do is cause head aches and frustrations. And dont listen to silly old cunts

    Don't lie to protect your hunting spot; those are clearly the tracks of a large red stag.

    I knew it wouldn't be a deer or pig, seen loads of them, never seen chamois but at least there is proof of a large buck hare
