Pound for pound I think fallow are tougher than reds or sika. I’ve lost a couple over the years. I once shot a buck at about 150yd with a 308 150sst. The shot wasnt quite on the money and looked like it broke a foreleg quite high up, but that buck ran flat out on 3 legs and disappeared into a gorge never to be seen again. I expected to find him just over the lip of the gorge as he should’ve sustained some serious damage in the lower chest region as well, but despite a thorough search I just couldn’t locate him. Fucked me off big time, was the first deer I ever lost, and reinforced to me how tough they are
