Don't know mate, this fella was living on the mainland.

Jezus you ditched that light savage 308 already Nice head mate

Legend. Great head.

Thats one thing i'd love to shoot and get mounted one day . Nice looking head

That's a real beauty corker head alright and you wont be lost when you have to pull out the cork from your next wine bottle, plus left and right pullers!!.

Excellent work that's a nice looking ram. My son uses a x bow (excaliber) in Canada in late deer season after rifle season has finished. Very effective weapon he said it is capable of putting a bolt clean through a moose, and it is accurate to boot.

They are a bit of a cheat as you don't have to train with them all the time like the bow guys do. But with a buggered shoulder this is the only way I can hunt with a bow.
This trip actually reminded me how much fun bow hunting can be , will probably take it with during sika roar and see if I can get a stag with it.
