FOXHUNTER 5,021 Posted October 19, 2006 Report Share Posted October 19, 2006 Was out stalking yesterday afternoon as it was a lovely still,sunny day and I thought I would try my luck On entering the wood I headed for a rutting stand I found last week. As I approached I couldnt believe my luck when I spotted a buck lying down not 20 yards from me , on raising the rifle he turned his head and looked straight at me so I quickly fired , job done Luckily the drag was only about 500 yards to the car 2 in a week , cant be bad Quote Link to post

FOXHUNTER 5,021 Posted October 20, 2006 Author Report Share Posted October 20, 2006 You try and get 20 yards of a fallow buck in a place where they are continually disturbed and very wary .This is deer management and you take your chances when they arise . Laid down or standing up what difference does it make ??? it still gets shot Have you ever stalked deer before??? Quote Link to post
