Stalking in the snow

I was out yesterday morning first light with Grasshopper on his ground to try for a roe doe.

 

Conditions werent great as there was a hard frost and the ground underfoot was very crisp....

 

I stalked as quietly as I could down a banking and approached a little clearing where I saw 2 roe skip across :)

The follower decided to stop so I got positioned on my sticks but as she was a good 140 yards away I couldnt keep steady on the sticks.....,my heart was pounding as I tried to control myself .

 

I took rifle away from my eye , regrouped and released a round , this was after a couple of minutes, and was pleased to see her drop on the spot :)

The shot was high but I was glad she died instantly with a spine shot......
