    He was shot at about 90yards, this lad has seen every lamp and has heard every call for the last few years, when you would lamp him he be gone like a shoot and would never give you that last little look, they give you, just before they disappear. but on that night he decided just to stop for a sec. BANG. down he fell. when i wighted him he was on a empty stomach, and his bladder and bowels where empty. So just maybe if he had feed he would be a few pounds heavier:rolleyes: The lad holding him in this pic is 6.4 just to give you some scale.

    Well done again, was it a .223 ?

    You could hold a new record here, any idea what the Irish best is?
    Maybe Boards should start a league, you shurly would be the top.
    Deffo saving up for a proper lamping kit, my best is now looking a bit small. :)

    Great to see the 22mag can still hold its weight with the big boys.

    if want to but a age on them have a look at there teeth, or how gray they are. and some times old ones will be under weight because they cant catch there pray.
