COUPLE OF BUCKS


Recommended Posts

The weekend saw me and David out stalking again. 7.30PM we set off stalking up a gorse covered valley , we spied a doe to start with just casually going about her business. Then as we meandered through the gorse a buck appeared from nowhere just walking behind the bush in front of us, I crept around and he never even knew what happened , good start to the evening we had only been out 1/2 an hour.

We continued up the valley to lie and watch from a good vantage point . On arrival I spied a nice 6 pointer and a doe out in the valley below, David took this buck at approx 250yards with another good shot :clapper:

As we were heading back I spied a fox which I thought was a vixen but turned out to be 1st cub of this year ...

A tidy pair of bucks by the look of things, nice twigs as well. Another good read FH with great pcs. Looks like fantastic stalking country round there, i'm green with envy. Cracking shot David :victory: was it a bracken tick that attached himself or a big bloater...
