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

World record pfffttt!

What makes it a wold record??? Bigger have been shot and well documented.!

I could go and shoot one half that size and it would be a world record for one shot by me!

Rushy - What takes me a paragraph to get across you can always do so eloquently with several words!

TSK - That's what I'm scratching my head about! Granted it's SCI and not Douglas but in that case I've seen even more heads that would put it to shame!

I said free range not public land.
True wild bloodlines just managed properly and heavily culled of inferior animals.

An orvill trophy winner came off there a few years ago.

Most of the property has no fences at all.

If 350 is the average off that place then they need to have a good look at themselves as to why the biggest ever (in the world too!!) is only 9 6/8 more!!!!

350DS average off private land that are wild and from wild stock only Cam?

Wild stock of the original strain released in that area.
20 years of management and good tucker will do that.

I don't see NZ Trophy Hunting claiming "free range" on their web site.

NZ Trophy Hunting, deer, chamois, pig hunting in New Zealand back country

It makes me ill to think that some people call this "hunting" and there are plenty of NZ businesses willing accomodate this behaviour.

Not that this is the original argument but I think we need to refer back to this post. There is no question as to where it was shot. and after doing a search for "Free Range on their red deer page it came up with this!

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

They would not claim a world record unless it was in some way, would they?
Dunno what for, but maybe a WR for a deer shot by a chick with that bullet or cal, something like that anyway.
I have a lot of time for Gussy. He's a good bastard and he knows his shit, It also confirms my suspicions as to where it was shot. :-)

I think they've just mispellled "Heinz" and are talking about some "Free Range" spaghetti can... about as much challenge to hunt though haha

I seriously wouldn't be surprised if that turns out to be what it is.

In that case, everyone look at my world record, this is the biggest red deer taken from 132m using a .270 by someone wearing red undies and a birthmark on their leg. Will sign autographs at a small fee!!

I have exactly that same record but mine is the "while standing on one leg" variant.

He's right about that much at least...

Oh, and maybe she thinks they're "heins" 'cos, like her, they have a "heinie" ?
