I have been rabbit and pigeon shooting with my air-rifle for the last couple of years with the sole purpose to eat what I shoot and I have loved every minute.
I have come across deer a few times when out at night and I have often wondered how deer are hunted and gralloched as it is a whole different affair to what I am used to. You Tube gives you an idea but only a sense of what happens.
I am not in a position to buy guns, licences, and associated equipment to shoot deer for myself (and the Mrs has plenty of other objections) so I am pretty much looking for a one off opportunity to learn from an experienced huntsman about deer and techniques used. It would be great to broaden my experiences with a larger animal.
I understand it is not straight forward and there are no guarantee's... there never are!
