i think you weren't holding the rifle into your shoulder enough or flinching. takes practice, and 308 for the first time shooting is a bit of a rifle. good on you. I'm from Australia, and love venison and hunting wild game for my family to eat. Lived in Scotland for 5 years and loved heading out to the families farm or the highlands. absolutely gorgeous countryside.
Thanks for sharing, I keepered up by Loch Fyne and I remember Bobby Gordon who was Headkeeper on Bute picking up for us during the game shooting season. Well done to Jon for explaining deer management. Cheers. GD
Cheers mate. Appreciate the kind words 👌🏻I've heard Bobby's name but never met him. That's some good ground up that way. Done my time at argyll estate. Glen shira way and Dunderave.
That is a great informative vlog loved it. What a job he has. To experience shooting a bullet rifle is something I will always cherish. Your drone shots are also great I have a DJI mini 2 and absolutely love it. Practice practice practice. Love Sotland
Thank you so much! It took a lot of practice to get them to where they are now, some of my favourite shots are when I fly super close to the ground so you can really see the speed, my next purchase in the FPV for sure 😍 there’s no better place for drone shot than Scotland!
Hope you took a visit to the "Big Hoose", Mount Stuart, many happy memories as a laddie on that island, my uncle Terry Colclough worked in the big hoose :) and lived at 1 Kerrycroy with my aunt Helen, superb times 70' 80's, keep up the good work Jon and super vid Suzanne.
@@suzanneemilyo the way the sound propagates it was actually louder for me than it is for you when you took the shot. Mental eh!? Plus I have dodgy ears for not wearing ear defenders at the range...
Cheers Ryan, appreciate your input. Yip they are different. As are the NATO 7.62 rounds. small differences but different all the same. Does the AK fire 7.62 rounds? Yes. 7.62x39 it's in the name. The overall length is much shorter but the bullets are within a few hundredths of one another. This isn't an attempt to compare or go over the ballistics qualities but an attempt to connect with something the non shooter may have heard of. Ballistics can be quite a dry subject and with the plethora of ammunition options a very deep well with not many people drinking from it. Anyway I hope you are well and healthy, eating your greens and wild game taking some time to relax.

He done such a good job, I found the whole day so interesting! Thank you for watching 🤎

I stalk in scotland im from cheshire and i love it up there thank you for sharing your video with us and your time 😊
Thank you so much for watching, it honestly means so much to me! 🤎
Great video, interesting to see how much work goes into running an estate like that. So different than life here in the U.S.
Awww thank you!! Yeah I can imagine it’s so different over there.

The house is amazing!! So worth the entrance fee and just to wonder around the gardens all day. Thank you so much!
Dragging your Mum with you was probably not a great idea either.
@@johncurtis3358 i think it was a fucking fantastic idea 😂
the Sitka spruce is adapted to temperate rain forests with really high rainfall
Oh wow really! I had no idea, so cool!
Love it pal! Haste ye back ❤
Is this something you think you will do again for a holiday? whiskey tasting👍
I’m not sure I love whiskey enough!!! American bourbon yeah 😍 must not be a true Scot 😂
Great wee video , you are very lucky you did not get scoped when firing the rifle, trust you were told to keep a firm shoulder to the butt.
I know it looks like I was about to get smacked in the face, but yes he did tell me, clearly I’m just pretty weak 🤣
At least you are still in one piece.😘@@suzanneemilyo
@@dondle2 exactly!! 🤩
Deer can easily overpopulate their habitats due to the fast growth and reproduction rate despite only giving birth to 1 at a time
Deer can and will have twins if the condition of the mother allows. This is normal with roe deer but with Reds it's very rare.
Are those trees being planted to offset some very rich person’s carbon footprint so they can fly around in their private jets.
Better than nothing, isn’t it?
Cynical and jealous.
Ear defenders
I didn’t realise he had held his ears until I watched it back 😂 I was like, hold on a minute…if you’re holding your ears, who’s holding mine?! 🤣

What a load of shite
My first negative comment 🥹
Thank you sir!
Gonna pause the vid for a second just to say that a .308 and the AK’s 7.62x39 are COMPLETELY different and only an idiot would compare the 2.

No need to be pedantic Ryan, I’m a .308 owner myself and I knew exactly what jon was getting at for purposes of the video.
