Folks
Thanks for making the last few days so enjoyable.
Now, the reason I didn't take the shot, (and may I add it was the best chance of shots I've never taken) The three of them where standing on the ice in the middle of a frozen pond.....
Of which I don't know the depth.
The day befor three people had gone through the ice in Leicester. Two of them had snuffed it.
Now I nearly always take chest shots, in the last 25 years I've shot at the neck maybe three times, and as you know most deer will run 50 - 100 yds on a chest shot. But now and again they drop on the spot, and this is what made me hold back on the shot.
So I'll be back this week-end to try and cop them on terra firma.
best regards and a very happy new year to one and all
Alan
