@ANOTHERHUNTER Didn't want to be known as a "paddock hunter" when I die, so thought I better redeem myself

Well done. I can imagine your face when you realised two deer to carry out.

Your an inspiration for me to get fitter and stay fit. I want to be roaming the hills still when im older . Cheers

@berg243 Interestingly, on my travels as I cut around the top of the ridge that those deer were on Tilly stopped and winded into the upcoming breeze and I thought "I cant be bothered going down there". It would have been the ones I shot. As it turned out they would have been easier meat by stalking down the ridge then and there rather than having to cut back later on.

I never said, but there were 2 other deer that appeared after I fired. I always glass around for a few minutes to see if anything else has been disturbed and after a minute or so one ran down through the clear, and I could see a deer staring around just inside the bush on the bottom of the clearing. So there were actually 4 there at least.

@Nathan F I didn't get to sleep until 2am Tuesday morning because of cramp. There is always a price to pay, regardless of taking magnesium and a hand full of various "keep me alive and healthy" pills. But yeah, keep that weight off, eh. Even to just avoid diabetes later in life.

I did get a two for one myself many years ago using my 243 that i just posted about the other day ,lined up on the neck of a spiker and fragments from the 100gr Nosler solid base (think thats what they were called) i was using went into the shoulder of a hind standing behind the spiker ,killed the hind instantly .

I have trouble with cramp these days also , quite severe sometimes and have not found any remedies apart from staying hydrated and a bit of extra salt in my meals . Cheers

I take magnesium which Im not so sure about. Magnesium lineament seems to relieve it though. I must get back to taking electrolytes during the day, because in the past that has helped.
I also take ant-inflammatories and I think that they compound the cramp. Just a theory though.

You are a beast Bruce! Good shit!

Well done. I’ve shot a yearling with recoil looked up and thought I had missed, shot again and found two yearlings 3 metres apart.

@Tahr you should try these, 99% sugar free which I like as a lot of electrolytes have a lot of sugar. https://www.chaseandgather.com/gear/...lete-hydration

@Tahr , I've been following you and Tilly from the old pub to this one and I'm always impressed with your reports.

I'm happy that Tilly is still getting out there with you and enjoying her work also.

Thanks @hebe.

Tilly and I got a couple on an overnighter last night. Hardly a trophy



@Brian and I were together so it was great being able to share the load. Brian shot one too.
