    I'm no farmer but I like a good plan. I get the snobbery of the dedicated hardcore Alpine hunters, you know, the "proper" hunters. From time-to-time there's been shitty comments made about us "farm hunters". But sometimes needs must and the situation calls for minimizing effort through application of brains.

    After numerous observations of target species behaviour in a specific location, a plan was indeed made and gravity was utilised. Wait until deer are above track... and shoot! [Gravity happens] Ta da!

    Job complete, on time, no incidents.

    congrats brains over brawn every day - wished we had quads years ago maybe knees not so stuffed now - every now and then did have a horse- lost art how to get deer onto a horse that simply cant stand the smell of it - deep little creek so bugger cant get away or spin sideways helps
