Thread: Stags of 2013 roar, show em!

Here's some of the red stags we shot this roar, all shot on DOC land.



We could have made absolute pigs of ourselves, as there were stags everywhere!!!! but we only took one or two deer each. For the trip I spent 4 days going hard core, hunting hard out early morning to night and I saw a total of 19 deer in those 4 days. I shot the big 11 pointer at 436 yards late on day 3 which was awesome! I've put a lot of work into improving my longrange shooting skills and I really wanted to shoot one from a good distance this year as every other stag I've shot during a roar has been within 5m to 20m, so getting one at 436 yards added a new dimension to my hunt.

I then went into cruise mode and only went for the odd short walk for the other 6 days, where I saw another 3 stags, but choose not to shoot anymore as we had done okay for ourselves. We got heaps of cool video footage of the trip which will eventually be made into a DVD.
