Thread: NOTHING SPECIAL

Went for a wee 3hr drive last Wednesday afternoon.Seen nothing at last light.So had a good night sleep in the truck,woke up to a bloody freezing morning ffs.Best thing to do is have a quick coffee and go for a walk along a river bed edge with a few willow trees about.I had to been carefull walking on frosty stones and wet muddy grass.Just on light about 50yds away i could see a deer just half out of the willow tree branchs.I had willow branchs for a bit of cover too.One up the spout and ready to fire.It was just light enough to take the shot.Deer took 2 more steps out into the open.I let ripp,the 308 made the hit,fk not quiet where i wanted the shot.She took about 3 steps back wards into the willows.A 2-3 year old hind i reckn,that will do for the freezer.Packed up and drove home.Roll on the next few weeks.
