a couple minutes later i see something booking it towards me from straight on, gather my wits and my gun to realise its a geist and about 80 yards behind her was a buck charging hard. they both dissapeared toward the road where i heard a car slow down to let them by.     i grumbled for about 30 seconds then saw the buck step out infront of me at about 35 yards.  placed the crosshairs and BOOM. he dropped his head then walked slowly forward for about 10 yards before falling over and putting all four feet in the air. a 196 grain vulcan bullet does wonders on teh pocket deer lol.

Nice roe deer. I have seen them bigger in mountains of Bosnia-Herzegovina and Croatia.

That would have been an even  better story if you had shot the buck when the couple were "coupling" or whatever they were doing in the woods.

Having lived in Germany for 8 years, I know it can stay light well into the eve.  But it seems a bit early in the year to be able to shoot at 10pm/ 2230.
