Grant saw one at abut 10m in the bush but didn't get a shot, I saw two on a slip at 650 odd yards, i got to 455 yards for a shot, and cocked it up by under estimating wind and hit a bit far back and didn't find it :(Quote:

Up Snee RD tonight. Turned left at the Sofa. Grabbed a coffee from the cart, and shot this without spilling a drop. Easy peasy.

Snee Rd fat of the land. Last night.
400 yard shot. 6.5x55.
Attachment 63669
Crickey Bruce that will look and taste nice after the BBQ has attacked it;)
Fat of the land is about right, I thought you north islanders were having a drought and no tucker around for animals
Is that 3 tops on one side? How was the head.
Tahr saw
You where sick a few posts back. Hope the health has improved our all those buckets of cement are going to slow you down.
It was a cully Fallow. Had pics of him on a game camera so new him. Saw a nice black one with a nice head which I have got to know too - too nice to shoot in the velvet (he wasn't stripping like the one I shot). Getting to be quite a few Fallow in that spot now.Quote:

Get some fat red stags before the roar but the fattest wild animal I've seen was a female chamois.
Yesterday morning. First blood for the 300saum. Neck shot. 400 yards.
Not raising a fawn so she was as fat as butter.
Attachment 64816
She was a big girl...
Attachment 64820
I should qualify "neck shot". She was facing down hill and head on to, me and I aimed for the front edge of her withers. So the hit in her neck was about 6" low, which wasn't too bad because it was a bit of a rush as she was moving off the clearing.
Are you SHURE that's snee road Tahr those pics look different bush to other snee road pic,s starting to wonder if your telling porkie pies Mr...nice shot by the way.
