Thread: The Fallen 2012.

Righto lets get into the swing of things and start posting what has Fallen for the season that is 2012.
I'll start although they aren't great they were stags, i'm hoping the best is yet to come.

Key board hunters?

Only stag for the year to date (minus the velvet that smashed off after the shot).. hopefully the next few weeks brings some hard antler.

I shot 1 last year that had one antler and the other smashed off in the velvet, bloody annoying when you get to it and find that.

Cheers for the post.

Figured I would get it rolling. Figured you only wanted stags. Shot four for the year so far - only freezer fillers though.

Yeah thats the shot, any and all from this year and especially through the Roar.
I went out this morning but all i could find was these bloody mud holes.


And some bastard keeps ring barking the bloody trees.

Nothing like those sneaky Nippons...nom, nom, nom

Not this year but in with the one antler theam.


Shit photo but it was pissing down. He had had his pedical snapped of at the skull and would never have grown another antler I suspect. must have been real uncomfortable with that bone grating on his scull and a puncture wound right threw one testicle
Had hoped to catch up with the guy who did the damage(got a look at em) this year but not going to happen unfortunatly

Oh and the date is wrong because I am a computer knob end it was third week of april last year

Wish I could add to this thread, screwed up big time blowing a good opportunity this morning. Pretty bummed about it. Let a Raukumara scrubber go in the weekend, you think my good deed would be repaid?

Here is my best properly hunted stag if you call shooting him from 725yards hunting

Yes I know he is on here in another thread but he fits in here too.

A pretty good head for the Nelson area.



I have got him ready for a skull mount, the bleach did a reasonable job.

When I get it finished & get my camera back I might put a pic up.

nothing wrong with a 725yard shot (in a straight line) given you were prepared to walk that far to pick him up

Here is the finished skull mount.

A bit of melamine & there it is, a little different to the traditional backing

Melamine sopost to go in infant formula isint it ?

Nice Greg
