    Farmed deer generally start earlier and carry on later than deer in the wild. This is mostly because the stags are close to big herds of hinds not all of which will fall pregnant of the first pass through so those that don't will continue to cycle and excite the stags in close proximity until they do fall pregnant.

    The same happens in the wild but to a lesser degree as the stags are holding and covering fewer hinds.
    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
