Client Buck

Andy, from the Isle of Wight, took this Roe buck on Tuesday evening. We first started on the Sedge Bed fields but soon moved off due to the presence of a herd of cows (incorrect info supplied). Plan B was onto the Worthy Park silage field where plenty of slots shown but after an hour's wait nothing showed. Always a bit wary re deer and a freshly (within a couple of days) muck spread field, please correct me if wrong but get the feeling that the deer won't use a field that is covered in cow crap. Probably just answered my own question, if they won't use the same field as when cows on then why would they with cow crap on and stinking of cows! Plan C next, time against us with the dimming daylight hours. A quick drive to the other side of the farm and after some cunning planning and stalking Andy got in a position to take a shot from sticks.
