I thought some of you might be interested/not seen this before.
Went out yesterday afternoon, just as the sun went down she appeared from the woodland, I waited to see if others were in tow, but she was on her own which raised my suspicions all wasn't well, she stopped broadside at 100 yards, heart shot with the .243, she ran around 50 yards and fell down.
A bit of leg thrashing and she was done.
I knew straight away she was old, I felt down her back and she was thin, I inspected her teeth and it quickly became apparent why she was thin.
At least it was an easy extraction, although the field was steep I got the truck right down to pick her up, the fields are drying out quickly now, thank god!
Cheers
