Alright. Got this chick last saturday at dusk. about a 100 yards with the .308. at dusk. 

I know it doesnt seem like much management but it's what we're shooting right now.

Since they have such a good buck to doe ratio(1:1) almost every eligible doe gets knocked up.  So if you have a legal quota of bucks and does to take care of for the year youve gotta shoot some to keep the population in check and off the road.  If we shoot a doe then the fawns will die in the winter so we shoot the fawns first. If it is a single fawn generally mom comes back and we can get her too. this time there were twins so momma didnt stick around to see why this one took a dive after that loud bang.

It sounds like it's time to get a new gun.

The cool thing with that is you can put it in the glove box or under the seat of your car and go do the rest of your errands for the day.  That way, you don't have to waste a trip home - just head to the grocery store, whatever passes for a Costco or whatever you have to do.  No one will even know that you have it.   :chuckle:

What kind of deer is that?  Doesn't look like a Roe deer.

Put it in a sandwich bag so that you don't get blood on your little pocket on the side of your pants when you put it in there next to your rangefinder.

Did you kill that thing with that knife as it fed out of your hand????  :bdid:

Maybe it jumped in front of the monster buck you took aim on right as you squeezed the trigger? Did you have a fanny pack on to put it in for the pack out?

But it is.
As long as we have the habitat, we can argue forever about who gets to kill what and when.  No habitat = no game.

 :yeah: 

I'm flipping you crap for that deer above and not serious at all.  (I was just reading another thread where someone was talking about how posts can come out not as intended.)  You explained the circumstances behind shooting that thing and it's pretty cool that you were able to hunt in Europe.

The deer in Germany are small not to mention the fawns. Once while out on a traing excersize a game warden came up to use to see if we had seen any deer as he was managing the forest. He showed us one that he took about an hour prior and he had the entire deer in a large cooler in the back of his VW Golf.
Yes they are small. But congrats on passing the test to be able to hunt there!!!

Hey everyone: back off!  That is NOT Bambi.  I know Bambi, and that deer is not Bambi.

That is Bambi's mean uncle.  He tortures little deer, cheated on his doe, and wants nationalized health care.

So give the hunter a break, OK?

Should make about 4 hamburger patties, if they are small.   :chuckle:

Just flippin ya chit.. congrats on getting out and getting one in Germany!!!!!
By my honorable conduct as a hunter let me give a good example and teach new hunters principles of honor, so that each new generation can show respect for their god, other hunters and the animals, and enjoy the dignity of the hunt.

Calling an illegal alien an 'undocumented immigrant' is like calling a drug dealer an 'unlicensed pharmacist'.

Congrats!!!

So does this mean you are now allotted a buck tag? Or do they have to do some sort of survey to find out how many does were killed first?

Hunted in Germany in the 1980's when I was in the military there. The hunter's test was difficult. I thought more difficult than the Master hunter course here.

Congrats on your deer. Better than sitting home.

 If you ( Hunt WA members) ever live in another country take advantage of their hunting and fishing opportunities. Always interesting to expierence another culture. I have hunted and fished in a dozen different countries and most American hunters and fishermen have no clue how fortunate we have it here in the good ol' US of A.

There are no tags or bag limits. this year i shot two young bucks before this doe fawn.  Buck season just ended, it was only about 6 months long. harsh. lol. 

It's hard to type the names in english because we always use the german names. Rehbock, Geis, kitz.

I'm organizing a the first good sized hunt in our revier for the winter tonight and hopefully we put some animals on the ground. wish me luck.
