That’s a character alright, crazy looking tops on him
Grunty looking animal @JoshC , nice shape head and cool pic with background. :thumbsup:
pretty interesting handle bars on that bad boy - congrats @JoshC on a real character head on a mature red
They jump fences with their back legs bent forward easy to get caught.Quote:

I've seen the same happen to red stags on stewart island.
Cool head good luck for the next outing.

How's it going up the Kaimais, anybody know? Hoping work isn't as hectic next week so I can get in for a look about.
Got mates farming on the east side. Nothing heard so far from them.Quote:

Nothing heard by me, one was heard the night earlier by two guys camping. A half hearted groan.
Phase two for me this weekend, a Sika- (dreams are free).

Humble Mossy+Barnual combo does it again - bout 300yrds.
Messy 12pointer.
He was feeding up a ridge just on the edge of a gut of native bush, bout 7ish in the morning.

LOOKS like a thumper to me. Any more pic's @ Tinfish
That's mean mate. Haven't even had a chance to chase a fallow yet!!!!!!!! WTF
Couple more pic for you.Attachment 86750Attachment 86751
He certainly is a solid buck. Well done :cool:
Awesome buck! He looks like a real stud. I'm jealous.
@Tinfish that would be going on my wall.
I'm on a roll. Last night. I've just got home (2am).

Looks like a fallow to me
My bad. Thought why would you bother with a fallow that you can shoot here in NZ when there's a chital to find.Quote:

Suppose I could add my effort. Wasn't going to be allowed to get away due to a few change of circumstances then decided a flyin might be good then my wonderful wife told me on exiting the bush that she and my kid were sick and I should stay down there so I joined my mates for another week. A great woman.
Let a few go that weren't much chop. This one was single calling hard while I lay in the wet shite waiting for the right opportunity. when it came he got a 150grn to the base of the skull at 30mtrs. An awesome hunt sitting for so long right amoungst him and his girls. a shame his head hadn't filled out quite right. last year i got one only 116mtrs from this one. the day after this one we bowled onto the clearing 450mtrs away and a new stag was sleeping on it this guys girls. Must be some good ground.

That's primo CB
Cracker stag cowboy:thumbsup:
Almost looks like the left has gone backwards
Yeah he was pretty old. Done his time. Teeth almost gone and going backwards. There was a sunny clearing on the other side of the creek yet this fella held the dark ground that had good views under the pungas. The day after he got the chop, the contender stole his girls and moved to the clearing and nearly got his a bullet for his naivety. The difference between a stag that survives and a stag ready for the freezer. We even got a stag 50m from three hit that just couldn't shut up. I ended up wanting over in my hit slippers after the mate bowled him. Poor stupid bugger.
Way to go @Cowboy . :thumbsup:
:cool:
Sorry my auto correct makes things weird. I can actually spell hit and the. Facepalm
Well @Cowboy that sounded like a worthy trophy! Definitely one for the book of memory's:thumbsup:
He looks to be a real bruiser of a stag. But being old and wise it must have been nice to get the jump on home! Bet he'd beaten a load of hunters before you came along:)
That's one old cunning stag to live that long. He's seen a few too many winters that boy.
Well done @Cowboy. I gotta get back up and chase them things soon
