Thread: The Roar is on!!!

I shot a young hind last night and then couldn't find her in the gloom / dark for half an hour. Finally found her with my nose. When I skinned her this morning I realised the 'Deer Smell' was rutty stag on her bum. I thought back and when I first glassed her I had waited to decide if it was 15 month girl or an older hind with a fawn. A rubbish stag had appeared, he was a bit thin and rutty for mince so I didnt shoot him but he started to push the hind around the hill meaning I had to chase them. When I caught up, the stag was cresting the next ridge and the hind was left behind and promptly lay down in the Tussock. With the smell on her bum and back I am sure the stag had just rooted her, the dirty bastard
