    That is a great stag, it really is. But I am not sure that it is the same stag you first photographed. Can we see some more photos from the first trip - unless you have already checked and are sure.

    100%sure, I had a bit of doubt aswell, but I've had a good look over the pics and videos and I'm certain on the same stag. But hey, iv been wrong before. When he turns his head in the video the points on his left side all line up and he doesn't look as wide. Thats sort of why I didn't headskin him because he wasn't quite as good as I first thought.

    Im with Moa Hunter, the stag in the first picture seems to have way more width.
    Think you shot his father.......

    The pics are deceiving as 1st pics make the head look wider than other pics but the big trez tines are what says it's the same stag.
    Good job mate, mint stag!

    That is a awesome stag you will be very proud to have got him. That week between hunts would have been a killer and heavy on your mind. Well Done.
