Can't complain with that result :thumbsup:
Let the photos do the talking aye Muel? Well done.
Well done. What part of the country is that?

Thanks Rushy, I've always hunted with a .270, was very pleased with the 7mm08 very usable firearm. Dont think the deer can tell the difference though.
These were shot in the western Bay of Plenty.
Deer won't know or care what hit him. Nice work there - will have to check this BOP out one day.

Great calibre well done on the stags!!:cool:
Shot bro. Will have to take me out when Im down next. Sick of seeing you get shit, and all I get is shit all.
Chur!!
Nice work mate. Were they croaking?
Thanks Pengy, they were croaking. Much earlier than last year.
I got a theory on that
Do tell....
Don't hold back Pengy . . .
Nothing concrete, just another theory.
Moon cycle is a fair bit earlier this year than last, with the full moon on 17th. It wasnt until 27th last year.
It has been so warm on the NI this year, that I struggle to believe that temp has much to do with it.
With the higher temps must logically come better food sources than usual, thus getting condition on earlier. Early full moon being a final trigger ?
Now feel free to go for the jugular. I got thick skin. :thumbsup:
Pemgy, it sounds no worse than any other theory I've heard espoused.
that I struggle to believe that temp has much to do with it.
Should have read, " that I struggle to believe that temp doesnt have much to do with it "
Oh fark another moonman but this time its a penguin!!:D
Its all just pie in the sky really. Nobody has the answers...except maybe Rushy ;)
You talking about your mate Ken... far ken... who is he again
Don't drive us off topic Moonman:)
It is made from Cheese ya know :)
They look in great condition Muel be good eating . The 708 doing the job as I'd expect .
I always thought the roar was linked to the hinds cycle & that to the 4th full moon of the year.
I suspect they'll go quiet for a couple of weeks then get into it full noise round the week prior next full moon.
Only my theory Pengy for what it worth ,will see what the wise 1 has to add .
Whatever the reasons, those two will make a few nice meals for sure
Nice one well done.
My theory is the better spring and summer(we are talking stuff growing not perving at the beach) IE regular rain and warm temps light winds the earlier the hinds cycle and the earlier the stags roar.
Late winter and cold spring dry early summer equals late roar
Early warm wet spring and summer equals early roar.
Only my experience but has held true the last 25 odd years.
