Saw/heard two wild stags roaring on the weekend...
waited for the rain afew weeks ago to pass then head out, headed out to a washed out access fuck, looked at the map ok 500km trip to the west coast and back to get in from behind.
Got to the track took 1hr to walk 600m of the track years worth of snowfall trees across the track and because its a 15k walk to a campsite then another 15k to get to the spot i wanted
to hunt pulled the pin on what was a spectacular week of weather for hunting high country. Headed onto google to see when access would be restored to the original spot well not open
by 9th march now open by mid march so not the best start but still need a cold spell to get them fired up so not the worst news
On way to Roxburgh the other evening saw a half decent red stag herding some Hinds away from the road
Hey @JoshC you must have more recon than that?:cool:
Heard a roar last night right on dark in Gore area. Just as I got back to my vehicle after slogging it for 4 hours prior not hearing or seeing anything .
Two Sika stags hee hawing just on dark yesterday
Ferny Ridge Kawekas
2.5 weeks early
No roars heard yet but seen plenty of deer up high over last two weekends throughout Canterbury high country. Heading back in to a new spot tomorrow so will keep my ears open but really not expecting to get onto roaring stags for another 2 weeks yet. I'll just keep letting the bino's do the work for me
No noise here as yet, hind wallows are in use and been getting used most of summer no real stag wallows been opened up yet.
And stags don't seem to be with hinds yet.
Heard a couple of fallow croaking this weekend. Private land.
First game camera action. Couple of Nelson lakes trophies (also known as scrubbers:D).
