Thread: Helping a few mates out....

Have been getting onto a few deer lately and being a new forum.... I figured I would get the ball rolling and put up the first report.

I have a few mates that have indicated they would be keen on some sausages and patties if I ever shot an 'easy one'. This was reason enough for me to head out and shoot a young animal if one presented itself. No way in hell was I shooting anything of considerable size.

It was about 4.30pm and I was feeling pretty bored and with the sun well and truly out and about - I gave Raging Bull a text and sure enough - he was keen.

Fast forward to about 7.30pm and we were overlooking a promising gully on the property. We had only been glassing for about 20 minutes when Raging Bull spotted a deer well and truly hidden having a mid afternoon snooze. We could only see the front third of the animal and were unsure of its size.... after ten minutes of deciding if we wanted to shoot this guy or wait and see what else would present itself.

The decision was made - I would take the shot. We ranged the deer at 220 yards and I dialed in whilst Raging Bull set up the video camera.

The result.
