Also check out the Steve Allen cat trap, they are awesome. Very highly recommended. [emoji41]

I put a camera back out a month ago, looks like batteries died after a couple of weeks.

That’s a shame, Cigar. Can you remember what batteries you were using?
Phillips batteries, but they were on their second round. I think they had done about a month in a camera late last year, but voltage tested okay so I used them again.Quote:

Couple of stags back in Feb playing about. DOC public land.

Mirror, mirror..
Bastard's wont Roar - but still shagging
Rising 2yr Hind - been dinning on Banana Passionfruit this last 2 weeks
Spiker showed 2-3 days ago and #1 rolled over the main ridge to do the deed
Yes #1 - please don't laugh :-(
The Vid clip could be interesting - prob missed it as there is a 5 sec delay before the Video activates after photo and as most know shes all over rover in about 3-5 seconds with these randy beggars

Some not to bad looking stags there for your area @deer243
Yeah, for DOC stags in the bush i be happy with them. The nine pointer is a pretty good one. Lots of scrubby heads around here but ive been reasonable lucky,Quote:

Some better ones in the open country, molesworth etc but dont hunt open country so if its 30inches or over, 8 points or better, or 200ds plus its a bush trophy stag for the nelson, tasman region for DOC i recklen
