Often they wouldn't go too far.

And no matter how careful we are or how much we practise our marksmanship to ensure quick humane kills eventually you will loose one not matter how hard you look.

Like I said you'll find him next week when he starts to stink up, probally only meters from your GPS tracks.

Yep same as my old man, good ol smoke and wait, not that I smoke, I just sit still for 10 minutes debating whether I had actually hit the animal. Best of luck for the roar,

Thursdays nights effort in the Ruahines, only a little fulla but he close to road end and was out feeding 2 hours before dark so was too tempting to turn down. No roars heard

Got this on Sat 31.5 inch

Nice sambo mate

Very nice !

That is a cracker! Any more details of the hunt you care to share?

My boy with one I shot on Sunday. Not too puzzled up; but fat as!

In the chiller.

Lesson learnt; don't shoot stags by your self... very heavy!

thats a choice stag. im hoping to come across a few tomorrow morning

Nice stags people, i see alot are shot in some nice open grass or clearings lol. Wish sometimes i had hunting like that around here. All our animals are shot in tight or reasonable tight bush . Suppose its all where you luckyto hunt but all of its good. Some are more lucky than others on where you hunt, who you know , etcetc.

Very inspiring photos and good field reports.

In direct contrast, it is Spring over here and there are a lot of hungry animals around town. These four black-tailed (or blacktail) deer were in the driveway yesterday - my friends kids observed that "they don't seem to like the daffodils".

3 beauty's there guys, the Samba is a cracker......cant wait to get out!!!!!!!!!

Back from a great trip, was cut short by weather will have the full report when im back at work.

No issues with proper hunters that use them
Was the only gun that didn't rust, the remingtons where absolutely covered in rust, the sako a little on the action and the tikka none, food for thought.
Best roar trip ever.
I hate unpacking ..........
