I've not long got back from 2 days stalking with my mate down in Wiltshire. Had a good couple of days and ended up with 9 Roe does, 2 Fallow does, 17 Rabbits and 1 fox.

 

We had 4 outings, with 4 Roe taken on monday morning and 3 on monday night " on Monday night were from a high seat). We then nipped back to my mates house to have some tea before heading off to clear a few rabbits up. Took 17 rabbits rabbits in 45 mins and decided to head back home to get some sleep and to keep my mates lady sweet :D

 

Got up early this Mornin and after an hours drive to get to the stalking ground i managed to pick up a fox and 2 more Roe does.This evenings stalk at another wood produced 2 Fallow does taken again from a high seat. The picture is of the 9 Roe does that i shot. 2 Roe were already in the chiller.

 

I have taken a few photos that i will post but i need to resize them and this was the only one small enuff, that i could post tonight.

 

I just hope the pic loads :look: :look:

I was in the marlborough area FM.

Stuartp the heads were still on 3 of them i think as we had to head out to get some more and didn't have time to get them done. Just wanted to get them chilled.

 

I used a .243 sauer outback with a reflex sound mod, complete with RWS 100 grain T Mantle bullets, for the deer and for the fox.

And .22rf obviously for the pesky wabbits.

I only brought 1 a fallow back and that has gone to the butchers to be done out into steaks and venison and leek sausages.

:( Just got the fox pic from my camcorder and tommy is resizing my deer pics for me. The fox was seen running across a field on the the edge of the wood we was stalking in so a quick call stopped it in its tracks and in it came. The crafty bugga stopped behind a tree (as they do) and i couldn't see it fully. It was only about 40 yards so i moved forward slightly and shot it in the head, its head was the only bit i could see.

Shot it with the .243 with 100 grain factory ammo, i took another photo close up but that might turn a few stomachs :lol:
