1st buck of season

[FOXHUNTER 5,020]

I arrived on my ground at 6am this morning just breaking light.I stalked across the 1st field and came to a hedgerow which I glassed down and spotted a buck about 250 yards away.

 

I stalked down the other side of the hedge when all of a sudden the buck appeared through the hedge about 150 yards away , it appeared to have a limp . I dropped to the ground and crawled for some 40 yards or so to get into a shooting position , the buck turned broadside so I delivered a heart shot , he ran for about 30 yards or so before collapsing dead. 6.10 am and I had been lucky already

 

 

 

I dragged the beast back to my car and continued as it was only 6.30 , I spied another 2 does but no bucks.

 

 

 

I then headed back to the car and decided to check one last field where I bumped into a fox heading straight for me .......................... finished off a successful morning

Well done Foxy,

 

It was a cracking sunrise this morning, made me feel like it was the middle of summer!

 

I had a bit of luck too.

 

 

Cheers,

Mark.
