    Looks like a lot of re gen, tight between the clearings but good for the deer

    Have a good day.
    Dundee, I saw six tonight over there. Only stag was a miserable four pointer. I missed a yearling neck shot at 50 yards. We were both standing, mind.

    Was another good hike with Sean as my companion. Four vehicles there this morning. Frosty start when we left.

    Saw 3 mountain bikers and a guy on a quad who told us we had just past him when a good stag walked out onto a clearing.Another chap with two dogs.We heard only one roar. And heard two shots.Another great walk in the park.
    Never took the shot at the hind as she had a young one with her. But it was great to show Sean deer in the wild.

    Yes Tahr it ambled across the clearing behind her at 1005hrs and they both disappeared into the bush. Was a good hike was trying to map the distance we covered on google earth but dunno how to do that. We walked as far as "Windy Point" and it lived up to its name.
