Thread: World Record Red Deer!!!!......according to an American

This story only gets uglier !

WTF are "heins" ?

Thad kept his eye on the Stag from behind, while Gus sneaked up to make sure all was good. To his surprise, the big Stag and six heins were just 80 yards away from us on a slight downhill. Gus’ reaction instantly told me I better get into position fast, so I moved as quietly and efficiently as I could to set up for a shot. The entire herd was staring directly at us – they knew we were there. Suddenly, the heins bolted on a dead run away from us with the monster in tow.

It sounds like their "professional management" has successfully eliminated every natural instinct that a true wild animal would have !

Now the NZTH web site is singing the same song:

Jessica Brooks-Stevens and the Barnes group hunted with us in March this year. Jessica shot her unbelievable free range Red Stag using a Fierce 270 WSM with Swarovski Optics and a 140gn Barnes TSX bullet. This pending new world record free range Red Stag scored an incredible 359 6/8 SCI
