ShootingEgg Posted February 11, 2018 Report Share Posted February 11, 2018 Went out this afternoon looking for a doe, got to the land with two mates to a very windy and bright sun in our faces, found nothing so decided to set up a target to check another rifle. After doing so we decided to take a drive round the land, mate has a new truck so wanted to get it dirty. As we drove into one of the fields up popped three Roe, one buck and two does, they must of been laid up kn the hedge for most of the day. I had the 243 by my side so we turned the truck and I got set to take the shot. One doe turned and presented a shot. I steadied and took the shot, heard it hit its mark and the doe stood for about 10 seconds then dropped, right into the puddle on the stubble field she was in. Now hanging in store after cleaning it off a little due to the state it was in after dropping into the murky water. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

7daysinaweek Posted February 14, 2018 Report Share Posted February 14, 2018 nothing amateur about that joint and steaks S.E, they have been very well prepared by my standards. Excellent job there, no greater satisfaction derived from field to plate with all your own preparation and efforts. atb 7diaw Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
