Thread: First deer ever

Kia Ora team,

Finally shot and gutted out my first deer. Was just a young one. Was lucky enough to be invited out to a buddy’s property whose family owns 800ish acres bordering the bush and they’re overrun. Was an awesome experience and learned a lot, glad I was able to be talked through it because if I had have been doing it alone in the bush I would have been screwed. Can’t wait to get one on public land.

Well done. 1st of many to come. You always remeber your 1st deer. Build on the experience for future trips.

good on ya and a tasty little model to

Nicely done !!

It’s great fun and a great way to feed your family

Well done, that will be tasty, every time you head out you learn a bit more and your skills will only improve.

Well done. I remember my mate cutting up his first deer by himself. He came back with big notches in his knife, said the ribs got in the way.

Well done on yr 1st and it's young and tasty,good shot.

Awesome

well done. still remember my gutting 1st deer what a dogs breakfast

Don't be afraid to enjoy the private ones, no shame in it. The public ones are always rewarding

Looks like a young red still in his summer PJ,s.
I don't think he got the memo.

Congrats man, always good to have someone with you for the first time butchering. I was alone but had chopped up a few sheep on the farm so had half a clue.
Enjoy the feeds, looks tasty.

Good feeling Aye? You will never forget the details of that one

Good on ya. You never forget the first one.

Awesome, my first attempt at cutting up a deer wasn't great so I went home and practised on a couple of our sheep.
