    You are correct the ring bulge is from an injury - a partial break, which has upset that antler. Great unique trophy

    Its pretty much over for the reds in the Wairarapa where I hunt. Old stag I shot last night was off on his own up a quiet gully scoffing his head off.

    Fallow bucks still doing the rounds and hanging with the hinds.

    Its been over here for couple weeks on the farm, (wild red deer) seen a few stags together out feeding over the weekend not with hinds but hinds nearby. The odd one might fire back in to life when a late hind comes in season but for now all its about is finding feed.

    was there a peak roar period? I went down twice 1 week apart and was quiet vocally. Plenty of animals moving around though on first trip

    Last one of my roar I think.My mate and I heard this guy open his gob down a small gut. I had my mate sit on a spur and roar every 3 mins as the dog and I snuck in. 23 mins later that was it.
