    First red deer!

    Hey brothers managed to bag my first red deer today in the ruahines stoked as. My overnighter trip turned into a day hunt in the blink of an eye. These trips into the ruahines have paid off. Big thanks to all on the forum for the information and tips, would also like to thank @25/08IMP hes really helped me alot with getting my rifle shooting with reloads and great hunting tips thanks mateName:  53746398_341605883145882_1647825054207049728_n.jpg

    That's cool. Make sure that you record the memory in some sort of enduring way.

    When you look back at my age your life will be a blur and the details of such a significant event will be likely lost if you haven't captured it. Its too precious for that.

    For the last 5 years I have kept a hunting diary with all sorts of things recorded. Its random, but significant to me and when I shuffle off to a rest home it will come too.
