    Took the mrs for an overnight trip..
    She said to me, "I just want to see a Sika stag, I replied its not that easy Bush stalking, her response was well if you see one then shoot it and il get to see it on the ground." How good only 200m from camp we shoot this funky stag.

    Spent Easter weekend over in the Gisborne region chasing stags with a mate.
    Super stoked to have popped my cherry and landed this one!

    Super long range shot (30m) with the Browning Hells Canyon Long Range in 6.5 PRC and right in the boiler room with a Heart/Lungs shot. Bloody lucky considering he was chasing his hinds right past me at full steam!

    As soon as this next front passes through I'll be out after one as well. From what I saw earlier in week, majority of the animals were really high still. You find the same?
