Couple more public land big boys I’ve run into in the past couple weeks
Quality of pictures is a good indicator as to why I haven’t caught up with them

Now its got to be one of two things either there rather a long way off......or you have the shakes so bad

We heard a roar yesterday, south-eastern Ruahines, very early, but it always seems to kick off quite early there - will be underway properly in a couple of weeks. It's dry up there. Wallows are all dry.

Horrible photo I know... Used phone e to take photo on sx50 from trail cam card.....

Nice buck be good to run into him during the rut.

Yep, still need a week or two by the looks of the tines

this guy needs another year or two

More likely to get a bullet or two with all the trophy velvet hunters out there nowadays. Would be great to see grow out and be taken in natural antler. Very nice pic indeed.

@Hunteast thats true, an sort of sad to see the Race now in new zealand, an of course by race, i mean Race to Upload on Youtube!

Absolute nothing better than Hard Natural Antler

Likely he will be shot before his prime, in an area which gets a lot of pressure, he is safe on one side of the road.... Plenty of others animals around if folks are meat hunting

Have you eaten all those cakes yet @223nut ?

RighteaO fallas JoshC Heard- two roaring yesterday how’s it heating up for the rest of you?

A few days into a hunt now. Get reception when at the top of a big hill
Heard a few half hearted roars. Seen a lot of deer but struggled to find any stags. When I did find some they were all in a a small area together. Seen a cracker that I hope to find again.
