Thread: Stags and Bucks 2025

Shot this stunning pre-roar stag last Friday. After 17.5km and 1500 vertical meters in the tops the day before, I came back to the hut down in the valley. I woke up early and went for a walk to a clearing on the bush edge when this guy stepped out following a couple of hinds. I was very surprised to see a deer of this quality down there as I'd only seen small deer there for the last year or so.

(by the way I have a question about euro mount sealing products on this thread if anyone has any tips - thanks! https://www.nzhuntingandshooting.co....7/#post1666109)
