Available: ROE DOES in the east.

hi john beenout with some of my good shooting pals to day have been telling them about the tarmigan black game got a lot of intrest will see you on 13th for more info harry
 
March is the time roe does are still in season but all clients are told on booking they are no longer all available.
I try not to shoot any mature does now as I have to be sustainable and they are getting heavy in young.
So the last few days have been interesting getting into a few groups of does but havig to take time to locate the follower
Not as easy as you think in woodland and gamecrops.
We had a miss on saturday.
This morning was good with some good film you can clearly see the old girl then the youngster.
How many would have rushed in and shot the first doe which stood broadside?
Enjoy.

Around these parts not uncommon.
I dont use a mod makes no difference.
the deer hear many "bangers" during the day as well as in winter you can always hear game shoots, then the pigeon shooters are at it.
the deer are very wild but accustomed to the noise of bangs.
 
good shot

nice vid john its nice to see different reaction to shot had simalar with foxes ie shot on of a pear and second one just looked at its pal kiking while i reloaded same fate harry
 
Picked some more ground up this week well x3 bits actually.
The bit i went on this morning is 525 acres and full of deer.
saw 21 this morning but many bucks or fat does, and poor backstops stopped shooting.
Finally after a couple of unproductive efforts and the farmer ringing me to tell me to "stop larking around and kill some bloody deer", I decided to shoot a mature doe which was safe but to far for a novice to shoot.
I took my rifle and after lasering the deer @ 242m's dailed it into the zeiss's turret, got comfy on my sticks and shot her perfectly through the heart with a 139 privvi. She ran 10 paces and fell dead.
Her 2 followers were shocked and milled around, I now got the client + girlfriend in closer to the young does 90m's he went on to shoot both perfectly through the hearts in minutes. A productive morning and a great first morning out.
Within minutes of the last shot the farmer was on the blower asking how many did he have to skin.
He asked me to drop one in at the neighbours on my way around and that gathered another 55acres up of adjasent ground.
Liz was so impressed with her morning fancies a go herself now.
Adam had a great morning paid for by liz for his birthday.
