Last night luck was with me and I got my first archery roe buck. I was behind a stone wall next to a pasture and when I called he came out of the woods on the far side and started to feed about 100 yards away from me. After a couple minutes I called again and he came like a rocket right at me, jumped the 4 foot stone wall, got behind me and did a U-turn and jumped the wall again. I whistled at him a few times and he stopped broadside at 30 meters.

They are a small deer and very skittish, so I was glad to finally get one. There are more here than at the old place and it is easier to sneak around.

That's pretty cool. How do you typically hunt those, on stand or on the stalk?

Nice action!! I saw a collection of roe buck skull caps that an old surgeon in this metro got as a young officer in the Army during the occupation of Germany right after WWII got done. An interesting critter...
