Ryan came down and I said to him "look straight over the top of thst rise in front of us on the opposite face below the matagouri there sre 2 deer bedded up"......
"Where there's no deer there"
My heart sank I checked my binos again thinking maybe they had gapped it....nope still there and hadn't moved.
After trying to explain where they were for another minute I now knew how Ryan must have felt earlier trying to point out the deer he spotted to me.
It then became obvious Ryan was looking at the far face not the close face, sure enough he confirmed 2 spikers bedded up.
We made a plan to drop down our side and use the contour to stay out of site till there was a small flat below us we could pop up over to get a much closer shot.
Whilst the 270wsm would be more than capable of a 600 yard shot, why risk it if I don't have to ?
