Had you left that Bahco there while you went to fetch a decent knife.

Doesn't look like you would have recovered much shoulder meat off that one.

I’ve been a good boy, Santa might give me one.

No shoulders were buggered that’s because the shooting off my knees is not good.

There was a playing card sized piece of shoulder blade found at least 10m clear of the bang, flop, roll path. The front half of the deer was pretty much mince.

Shootm doesn't exactly use a pea rifle does he.

That knife looks bloody sharp Bruce but I would be worried with loosing a digit without a quillon to stop my finger or thumb running onto the blade, of course you are a few thousand animals ahead of me in experience

You worry too much. Its an old American Trapper design. Much the same as our old Green River skinners...and our farmers and shepherds all seem to still have most of their digits

Very Nice, the fallow should taste good, nice to see you share the animals you hunt with others, I bet they are happy to see you pull up in there driveways.

The good old point, find and bail model ah.

Looked like Tilly had it by the throat and you gave it a smack in the nose

Exactly. I'm 69 so I've cut back on the hours a bit. Working for myself so do enough to keep an income rolling in but make sure I get the odd day off too. Probably do about 30 hours a week.
