I went to Tasmania and traveled to the central highlands.
Idiots went through that night with spotlights blazing, firing shots into the ground etc etc
No fallow!
But I did shoot a doe just on dark next day.
Hit right shoulder area as she was watching me. Next shot through ribs.
Lost her in the thick, thick scrub.
I shot her with my 25/06 using 117 grain bullets.
I thought she was 300 yards away. Measured the distance next day and it was well over 350 m!
I truly hate leaving a wounded animal
but the scrub was so thick.
I shot the doe on the flat area but she was just into the scrub.
