    @stagslayer 12 that's fantastic! I shot a big long fancy Rusa in PNG but your hard earned NZ head is 10 times the trophy!

    That's a beauty of a Rusa, they would be one of the hardest to get, well done.

    Yesterday avo I poked into a valley I haven't looked into before. Public land a couple hours from home. I had noticed the sun had melted most of the snow off this hill already so thought it'd be worth a look. Pretty happy to bump into these fellas. Couple of really nice young stags, heaps of potential. Providing no one shoots them, or a chopper doesn't get them.

    Shot this one for the freezer, he was the ugliest (apart from the one antlered one which I saw after I'd shot this one. He was also the smallest but fattest...
