Guy I got couple nights ago on DOC land

Awesome buck, well done.

Great Buck has a really nice skin as well.

Got this stag about a month ago. 10 points maybe 11 if your the jammy type it's a pb so happy as and have left quite a few other animals in the last year so gave in for the handy one while he was still fat.
Don't know why I haven't taken a better pick of the antlers but oh well

Ripper mate, great timber and length in the tops

Very nice stag

Nice looking stag,well done, some good animals showing up, love this post.

Nice stag and pics Stocky, but isn't it a bit risky packing out the head right way up? Someone could see the antlers poking up over a ridge (or out of the scrub), think it's a live stag, you walk up over the ridge (or out of the scrub) and get shot at. Yeah it shouldn't happen because hunters should identify their target properly, but lots of stuff that shouldn't happen, does happen.

Fair mate that hill was brutal the pack was empty at the start of the trip and had the entirity of the stag in in all bar the neck meat which was in my partners bag so need my hands back and was bashing through a lot of scrub originally so secured it in the least likely way to knock me over or get caught as that was the primary danger. I'd hope that no one is dumb enough to shoot at me in the open but I guess I should be a bit careful. I'd hope they would also have seen my partner bright pink and purple.
I did put it on my shoulders once I got on the ridge top.

First deer for me on DOC land. I think he must've gotten lost.. Write up incoming!

Stonker @TheJanitar!! Awesome
