    He was the smaller of the 2 that I have seen over the past week, and he would have been 35 to 40kg.
    He just happened to be at the right place at the wrong time for him. It was 8.45pm with low light, in a cleared paddock at 150mtr over open iron sights.
    I had the advantage of wind direction and elevation with long grass for cover.
