    Time to stop being a creep in the corner.

    Hi guys, been following the forum for quite a while now and thought id finally join up and say hi.

    Ive only shot a handful of animals but this guy is my latest. We spotted this tahr and a buddy of his at 400m and i decided to get a bit closer, took around an hour to sneak up on him and reduced the gap to 160. Was my first proper stalk and quite fun.
    Found a very well placed flat rock in amongst the matagouri so i had a good rest, took a few deep breaths and BOOM! clean miss. Shot went a meter above him. Him and his mate bolted off into the shrub and disappeared. The shot spooked a deer that must've been bedded down fairly close so we were having a look where that went when we spotted the tahr again at 250.
    Back on the ground, lined him up and drilled him right through the engine room. Was my 2nd bull tahr and went 13". Way bigger than my first.

    Anyway, cheers for letting me join, ill try not to be too much of a cun..
