Father & Son time (hunting vid)

Had a good little hunt with my eldest on the weekend. Came across a red in early velvet. This area is about to be 1080'd so I was happy enough taking him despite his potential in a few months time... All did not go quite as planned.

Good stuff Feral.

Good work lads, shit and bad shots happen. At least you ended up with it, the deer I hit badly yesterday was unfortunately not found.

Good body size on that beastie

Brow tines looked decent too, so I'm sure he would have shaped up OK for the roar. He was well fed and certainly a lot of meat off him. zero fat yet though.

good stuff, hope you kept the velvet, some $$ there

I have it in my freezer, but short of PG wrightsons, I'm not sure where to take it. Any idea on the ballpark value?

Maybe up yo $200, don't think PGG will take it, I tried a couple of years ago. Need to talk to a deer farmer
