I reckon he was a 13pt last year. Still looking for the stag of 2 years ago, this fella has some pokes from a run in with something so fingers crossed we run into him again one day.
Yes planning on putting him on the wall.

@Shootm he is a ripper! Well done.

first red stag ever. Shot @92yds with the 284. 162 eldm entered shoulder and was stuck under the skin on the other side by the back leg.

@Shootm that's a ripper! Well done.
@superdiver that's a good first red stag. That's what memories are made of.

You should recognise that scope @Tahr. Also took 2 fallow with it earlier in the week however no bucks so no pics!

Nice head you have there @Monk good effort in blocking out the road name ........ but you forgot the you are here on the map

@Shootm thats a great head mate, be nice to see how he scores. Looks to have a solid 14 points to score from.

Some bloody good heads showing up from you other fellas too, great work.

Ripper stag Ross

Epic trip last week into Wanaka alpine country. We set my good mate Glen up on his first Otago red stag and he nailed it. Spotted this stag four kms across a valley on the first evening. Crossed over the next day - took all day, bloody gutbuster, then got the stag at last light. Absolute mission of a hunt, and to see him roaring on the bush edge right on dark was just awesome. Stags were roaring well all week, saw a few others but left them to grow. Around 50kms walked for the week, and hours staring through the binos. Flew out Saturday morning for a mates weddings, home late last night, now for a quick couple days at work, repack and away again for a few days...
