Following on from @Trout 's post for September it's almost the end of October. Show us your deer! What have you gotten this month? Did you get it on the spring grass, in the bush or elsewhere. I'm keen to hear some yarns and see some photos.

I went out for a look yesterday afternoon before the wet weather set in. Only 20m walk after crossing the fence I saw some movement across the valley. Binos out, a deer stood up amongst some gorse, turned around and sat back down. I snuck into a spot that could see down into it and had a clean shot at 178m. So that part of the hunt was the easiest I've ever had, but the recovery from in that gorse maze was horrid haha!
Bucket list hunt for me this spring is to get a deer in the river flats somewhere, as I haven't had success with that yet.

My pig hunting mate told me to take welding gloves when I started pig hunting with him. Why? Found out very soon. LOL. Upped the anti by taking a Silky saw later on. Hated the stuff because it was brutal on the dogs.
:D @TeRei classic! A hand saw or pair of loppers would have been great. And some welding gloves too. The problem was my glasses fogged up from overheating and I couldn't see, then my pack and rifle got tangled in vines and I fell into the gorse and got some nasty pickles in my butt!Quote:

Never learn. 2am 4 weeks ago trying to find a stag. Fell over steep bank and landed very heavily on my left shoulder then bounced on my back into the proverbial...lay there for some time thinking how I was going to extricate myself. Very concerned about my eyes. Bit my tongue and clawed myself out. Luckily there was creek nearby. Gorse takes no prisoners.Quote:
