sako751sg Posted February 23, 2018 Report Share Posted February 23, 2018 Have fancied getting the 3 species for a while as not access to them up here obviously so had a jaunt down to Suffolk to try for them with the old fella.Hes shot a lot in his 73 years but never had a gig at these. Very lucky to get the 3 on the first day including a nice gold CWD for the old fella and i managed a silver on the 2nd.Outstanding couple of days with great lads and the trip was an education on the three species. Planning on going down next year too and cant wait. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Walker570 Posted February 23, 2018 Report Share Posted February 23, 2018 Well done, well worth the trip down. I would hope you took some home with you because muntie in particular is in my view the best eating. Perfect weather for hanging for a few days as well this week. Chinese is also good eating, I find hanging it 10 days improves the flavour no end. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JDog Posted February 23, 2018 Report Share Posted February 23, 2018 Well done both of you. Are CWD teeth called teeth or tusks or what? That gold certainly had a pair. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Came home with 2 munties,2 CWD and the fallow.Only had a bit of either Muntjac or CWD and its the best venison ive ever tasted. 3 hours ago, JDog said: Well done both of you.

Not the hardest deer to stalk but an education to see their habits and habitats. 2 hours ago, moose man said: Cracking outing , that looks a fabulous cwd and I have to say the fallow looks a proper lump .. Whole weekend was great and very educating.Fallow was an old doe,not that i would have known,lol. 2 hours ago, bumpy22 said: great pics as usual. glad you got your deer certainly on my list to do. need a couple more aswell Cheers fella. Very lucky to have a top lad getting me on to them and fine to get them all ticked off. Edited February 23, 2018 by sako751sg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well worth the long drive South Superb trip Mark. Was an education on species we dont have which was great. Just off the phone to the lad and been asked doon the week before you come up. Hes seen some big munties so didnt need much convincing. 1 hour ago, islandgun said: great report again, and thats a good looking terrier ! Thanks Fella.

7daysinaweek Posted February 23, 2018 Report Share Posted February 23, 2018 What an outcome, all power too yerself for gaining the three species, what a wonderful education to see them ist hand, there habitat and how they go about their general business. As you say the lad has put his work in to get you on them. Good eating there as other have noted. atb 7diaw Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mice! Posted February 23, 2018 Report Share Posted February 23, 2018 Sounds like a trip of a lifetime that, out shooting with your old fella, actually getting what you went for is obviously a massive bonus. great pictures as well, the tusks look like they could be make believe almost. sounds as though you have found a good guide? That's for sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very happy to get the 3 and as you say it is an educational to watch 2 of them which ive never even lay eyes on before. Guide was a top lad and couldnt fault and didnt take much coin at all.

That's for sure. Being with the old fella made it very special for sure.The lad said we should get all 3 but i would have been happy with whatever came our way so it was a bonus. The tusks are something prehistoric right enough and so alien to our antlers up here. Guide was outstanding and knew his stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
