Hi biglad, If you go up onto the shoulder of hill, on the west side, about 200 yds from the end and wiat till dusk, you should impove your cull figures.

Dry Powder.

not good big lad where abouts...

any signs of deer there. any tree damage from bucks
do you think the weathers beat them ... i.e the harsh cold from winter

Hi Biglad

The last 3 weekends have been good for me, 3 six pointers and 3 cull bucks, weather has been right, they are out there I am sure. I will be putting the rifle away in about a fortnight, the bucks always seem hard to find in June, but this year I think the deer are a couple of weeks behind their normal development, I would guess because of the hard winter.

Wish you Good hunting

sound,

lots of fish though :stir:

three members of our syndicate also where up this weekend and had a bad result.
two bucks for three lads all good active stalkers for three full days.... two different sites 1000 acres in one not 100% sure of other site size
bucks do seem to be a bit scarce on the ground.
not sure whether its just them hiding till rut starts or what.
very little scraping though which is unusual
i was planning on going friday and have now temporarily prosponed...
i know i may have different results as deer are unpredictable.. but give the ground a wee rest.

Well followed your advise ha ha

arrived at 1830 yesterday and left at 0630 this morning

last night seen 3 bucks and three does

this morning two bucks and two does.

this was one of them,
 
I have had the same experience two weeks ago in D&G, I usually see deer even if i dont get a shot, but never saw any bucks at all over 3 days. What made it worse was that I had to get the truck towed back to Yorkshire. I think I am starting to carry a curse :eek:
