    I have shot a stag with similar shaped antlers in the central north island. It had a very long and forked trey tine. Would be very surprised if it had any farm blood in it though.

    It takes 43 muscle's to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger pull.
    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!
    Rule 1: Treat every firearm as loaded
    Rule 2: Always point firearms in a safe direction
    Rule 3: Load a firearm only when ready to fire
    Rule 4: Identify your target beyond all doubt
    Rule 5: Check your firing zone
    Rule 6: Store firearms and ammunition safely
    Rule 7: Avoid alcohol and drugs when handling firearms

    Split brow tynes are a common trait in some farmed "trophy" bloodlines. I will stand to be corrected but NO NZ FERAL of original bloodlines have split brows. For better (or in my opinion) worse they will become a more common trophy from escapes or releases, plus of coarse, hunting estates.
