Hi All,
Well it's getting close now as on Saturday a friend and I head south for a couple of outings hunting Roe Buck. We meet the gamekeeper at 2pm Saturday, book into our overnight digs then head on out. Sunday it's up before first light then out stalking the Bucks. I am hopeful that I can grass a nice 6 pointer this year.
Let's hope that the Bucks co-operate and stay out of the Oil Seed Rape crop and stay in the Wheat

the Rape is so high (it's in full flower just now, bright yellow with a really heavy sweet sickly scent) that any deer in there cannot be seen

My last trip there I shot a nice 4 pointer that had just come out of a strip of trees to graze on the grass margin around a field crop, this was in May as well

, we are hoping that the rain will hold off for the weekend but are going preapred for wet stuff.
