2018 News
We shall continue to remind members that newsletters require news content and that really needs to come from you. We are happy to receive news in any form you like, no matter how rough, and will willingly craft it into literary masterpieces for general branch edification. So share your (deer related) experiences with your fellow BDS members via this organ!

West Branch AGM 27th February 2018 at 7.30pm
The AGM is to be held at the Tunnel House Inn, Coates, near Cirencester.
In the Rucksack
This was first tried out some time ago and the response was very good. The idea is to pass on to other members a tip, technique or piece of equipment that you have found especially useful when out stalking. We will also include short book reviews as well. This time, some thoughts on protection from disease from an unlikely source?
Have you a tip for other stalkers? Please send entries to t.golesworthy@exstent.com
Newsletter distribution
All newsletters will in future be also put on the BDS website www.bds.org.uk. You will find the newsletter on the Branches page under ‘West’. We will also put dates of activities and events into ‘Deer’.
Please, if you have not already done so, agree to receive your newsletter by Email. Not only is this a quicker and easier distribution method but it saves a lot of Branch funds (in postage) and committee members’ time. E-mail addresses to t.golesworthy@exstent.com
Antlers
We urgently need antlers from any deer species or anything saleable that is Deer Stalking related, new or old. If you can help then please contact Nigel Maydew by email. Income from the sale of these items goes towards club funds in order for us to be able to subsidise events. Thanks to those that have donated in the past.
