Hi all,
Not been on for some time posting so hear we go.
I went to west Germany hunting Black Roe bucks this season as I did the year before but not joy this time on the black buck, I did see 3 very nice black bucks but not in the right spot for a shot. But! But! Lol after a hour sit in one of the many high towers one morning this chap stepped out and well to say I have always wanted to shoot one would be an understatement.... I could not believe it when I spotted him about 180 meters walking towards me, the seconded I spotted him all Black Bucks in the area where safe he was in the wrong field at the wrong time,,, call me crazy but I really wanted one of these, I took the shot at about 120 meters and he dropped on the spot I was so happy, I have been a very lucky boy in life with what I have hunted and this was one of the animals that was right at the top of the wish list.
Raccoons are a pest and are treated like foxes so please don't think bad of me the guide was over the moon I had shot it, I am having the skin tanned and he will end up in my gun room hope you like the photo.
Thanks Alex
