    Fallow Deer Park

    Great specimens. Are the bottom two photos of the same animal?
    It takes 43 muscle's to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger pull.
    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!
    Rule 1: Treat every firearm as loaded
    Rule 2: Always point firearms in a safe direction
    Rule 3: Load a firearm only when ready to fire
    Rule 4: Identify your target beyond all doubt
    Rule 5: Check your firing zone
    Rule 6: Store firearms and ammunition safely
    Rule 7: Avoid alcohol and drugs when handling firearms

    Great pics and heads.
    My guess its in the UK. James is a 10 pound pom and I think is over there at present.
    Out beyond ideas of wrongdoing, and right-doing, there is a field. I will meet you there.

    Fantastic pictures! Correct me if I'm wrong but it's the same buck in all four pictures? Looks to have the same split guard tine and slightly palmated bey tine on his right antler?

    My guess is England, we had a deer park with fallow where I grew up that was open to the public. As kids we used to try and stalk them but never got close.

    You can clearly see he likes to use his right side antler more.
    Unsophisticated... AF!
