Many thanks Andy for another great evening on the Bucks..
I met up with Andy at six and set off for his grounds near Dorchester.
Weve been out a few times now and his ground is an amazing mix of open fields,dense woodland and acres of mixed crops.
I new we were in for a good night as stopping on the way in to have a chat about the wind and planned aproach the binos were out and we spotted Sika in nearly every field we could see.
For me this was already a great night as wether we bagged one or not observing the deer and their calves was amazing.
The abundance of Sika was actually going to be our downfall as we made our way round as these eyes and ears would bump the bucks,does and fawns at every opportunity.
We had a great stalk through some quite dense woods and had a spell up in a high seat before making our way round the hedgeline.
With the falling light we stalked making our way back to the car and met this young fella. Sticks up and shot taken he made about thirty feet.
