Hey guys!
On the past weekend I was invited to hunt with a good old schoolfriend of mine in the center of Germany. For those who know about Germany: we were hunting in the south-east of the Harz. We wanted to go for roe deer, red deer, wild boar, moufflon and predators. But primary for wild boar... we had good moon light during the nights for this...
So we went out every morning very early before dawn to start our hunt from our highstands.
On Saturday morning at a few minutes to eight a red deer came across the woods I was hunting in. It was like perfect. It stood still at a distance of about 60 meters watching straight into the opposite direction of my sight. So I shot it with my new rifle "Merkel B3 BBF" in caliber 7x65R. A nearly perfect shot without messing up to much meat. It fell to the ground after a short distance of escape for a few seconds instantly dead.
You can't imagine how I was shaking after the shot. I could not even light up my cigarette that I tried to smoke in order to calm down a little and give it all a little time. I was sure about the shot beeing very good.
An hour later my friend came to catch me and to look with his dog after the deer. After a short search of about 30 meters we found it laying on the ground and everybody was quite happy. Later on that day we had to drink a few beers and a few shorts to celebrate my luck.
We didn't even expect to catch a red deer. But it seemed that all the gods of hunting were working together this morning to give me this great oppotunity. It is a 3-4 year old male red deer with 110kg without the intestines. A nice bag of meat for the christmas time...
Waking up the next morning my girlfriend called me to tell me that she is pregnant and we will become parents in the next summer...
So you might imagine how intense this weekend was for me...
I thank my good friend Oliver who made this hunters dream come true!
I just wanted to share this with you guys interested in hunting...
