Great video! It's really nice to watch new folk getting into dear stalking and country sports for all the benefits it brings. Well done Mo, and may this be the 1st of many
A real pity that Bow hunting has not been lobbied more to be added to the legally permitted ways to harvest deer in the UK. The skill required to get to ethical shot distance makes for a satisfying experience. Would be an interesting add to the PDS1 or DSC1 curriculum.
A good first time out, but I'm glad you had someone experienced with you! The first set of deer that you were interested in ran off, which I was pleased they did; As there were houses in the back ground and with a miss, the bullet could have skipped and hit the houses. Lightly no, but possible YES. Anyway, nice shot and well done.
Nicely done, Weidmannsheil! Love that beautiful blued Sauer 202 too. May I ask you to consider making a video about muntjac deer, since they are a specialety to the UK?
Yes, that 202 Elegance is one of my favourite. Some really nice woodwork as well. Re the Muntjac film - In fact we have already done one. Try this: ruclips.net/video/-LKtBVcgYUk/видео.html
Perhaps in the UK it more common but in North America I have never seen casual hikers in the hunting area. It could very well be common here too but I've not seen it.
Thanks for watching once again! The south east of England is riddled with public footpaths and rights of way which permit members of the public access across private land from point A to point B. Added to which we are a little tighter on space than you guys!
@@theessexhunter1305 this seems like a bad faith comment but ok I'll bite. Yes north America is huge. Especially compared to jolly old England 🇬🇧 It's not the size of the space it's the use that I found odd. I didn't know pedestrians in the uk could cross private land so I ASSumed he was in a public hunting area. In the US public hunting areas are often restricted to that purpose. Hence my question.
@@Nebula_Ultra We have public foot paths crossing all over the UK The coastal paths are public unless closed for Ministry of Defence areas. Also quite a lot of people in a small Island so as the foot paths cover the whole island even peoples back gardens then you will find people out at all times day/night. Just Google UK foot paths Back a 1000 years those paths were from village to village with it very rare people went v far that is why the local dialects are so many.
In Scotland people can pretty much go wherever they want due to our open access laws. It's not a problem really. Also unlike the US we have deer shooting all year and no bag limits.
With respect, In the UK Muntjac need shooting perhaps more than any other species. They are invasive and breed every 9mnth. With no predation in the UK, they'd have a serious impact on the environment if we took the attitude that its not worth shooting them because they are not big enough.
Just love this whole style of hunting. Being from the USA this is on my bucket list.
You'll be very welcome Rich.

Thanks for the comment and for watching!
Well done, Mo! Welcome to the Club. Hopefully see you on a weekend someday.
Well done Mo. You never forget your first deer. Congratulations to you Sir. Again a wonderful video.
Thanks for the comment James
I have to say, I thoroughly enjoyed this outing myself! Thanks to Mo' for his input and looking forward to hearing your thoughts on how we got on?
Fantastic video been shooting deer for years. Still fills me with joy to see deer
Likewise Kyle, they have become a bit of an obsession. Thanks for watching.
Nice just opened up RUclips and here you are.
Well done to the shooter Peter, my first was a 16 point Red Stag...111kg dressed !
You always remember your first! Mine was a Fallow doe.

Agreed
Sauer 202/243win is great choise!
Flat ground where the Public are likely to be is best served using High seats during first and last light....imho.

Got by a Nose
Wheres the sport in shooting that thing its about the size of your nose, im all for game hunting but atleast kill something worth while.

Muntjac are some of the tastiest deer. There are several kilograms of good venison in a muntjac buck.
