Who did the mount?

Jason from ruahine taxidermy

Very nice,312ds up with the best for a pure wild deer.Good effort.

That mount has come up real sweet, nice to be in the 300 club well done.

Mai demands a walk most weekends now, There's a couple of spots I can go to that have a few animals.
When we went to the usual spot the grass was that long and wet we got soaked to the waist. Bugger this I thought might as well go home again.
When we got back to the truck I decided to go and check another block I can hunt on. when we got there the grass was nice and short and really green.
Didn't have to walk very far before I spotted these two grazing. I had a good rest picked out the big guy first. wouldn't have been much more that 100 yards. he dropped on the spot. smaller stag ran on about 20 yards and stopped. To good an chance to pass up.so took him out to. ten minute walk 2 deer on ground, best bit was I could drive to where they fell to the 6.5x55, then had to call a friend to help lift
the big stag. gave him the little one for his troubles. and have taken the big stag to the local fishing club for Christmas BBQ
Really good when you can recover all the animal

Yeah ok not a stag but my best buck to date.

Where in Englandshire is that?

Berkshire about 60 mile from London. The farmer just gave me the go ahead to knock over as many as I want.
Fallow out here there are huge numbers. In a 10 mile radius I’d say there would be easily 500 fallow. They get into big groups to. 50 is considered small.
