washwildfowler Posted March 31, 2013 Report Share Posted March 31, 2013 I had a call from a keeper friend Friday afternoon asking if i would like an evening in the high seat ,which i replied yes and thanked him... we arranged a time to meet and where ...i finished work and rushed home shower , a bit of snap, got my kit and set off to meet him , i got to the yard where we arranged and was met by another 2 keepers from the same area and the keeper who invited me after a bit of banter .. the keeper set out the rules of do's and dont's ... we all drew numbers to see which high seat we were to go to , i got number 3 and then was told there's been a few does seen around there .... The keeper dropped me off close to my high seat and said he would be back to pick me up on dark , i walked to my high seat got sat in ready , i was sat up there for about half hour when i heard some rustling coming from the miscanthus, and out popped a doe at around 120 to 150 yards , i put the scope on her and took the shot down she went ... then another ran out and stood looking straight from where the shot came from.... again i put the scope on her and down she went ......great start i thought to myself .... Another 20 minutes passed and the light was fading i picked out a charlie at around 400 yards heading my way , i was following him through the scope when another came out the miscanthus around 200 yards i put the scope onto him, and and down he went ..... i sat there for a bit longer and was just about to call it a due as the light was fading fast when i heard a rustling about 50 yards and out popped another charlie.... again i put the scope on him and down he went ..... Well the light had gone so i climbed down and collected up everything... and it was not long before the keeper was there to pick me up , i told what i had shot and he was over the moon not only with the deer but more for the foxes i had shot ... so it was back to the yard to deal with the deer and meet up with the others .... when we got there the others where back and dealing with a couple of muntjac that they had shot.... the keeper asked if i would like to take my deer home i said yes and thanked him .... after a bit more banter and saying my good buys i was on my way home ........
