    Summer stalking

    It has been quite a while since I have posted anything here, to be honest the political mud slinging kind of put me off, but that's another topic I have zero interest in right now.
    It has been a very productive past 12 months for me, despite having ruptured my right knee ACL nearly two years ago and recovering from surgery I still managed to hobble about with the rifle, at times though things got pretty tough I'll be honest. Spring was pretty good with plenty of yearlings hitting the ground, this Summer I haven't done a great deal, I don't deal with the heat very well so have spent more time in the water with the speargun. I have still been able to drop a few good meat animals, a bit of pest control around the region for some landowners has kept me busy, along with a few early mornings in the regular spots, still those bloody blowflies are never far away so yah have to move fast.
    The last stag shot was a reasonable 10 pointer, it was actually a pretty good one with quite long antlers. The velvet peeled off very easily so I'll keep that one and clean it up. Thought I'd add a few pics from out on the water as well, I guess its still technically shooting right ?

    Never argue with stupid people, they will drag you down to their level and then beat you with experience.
