    Possibly, last year Beeman and his son were just about run over by a stag while having a cup a tea. Beeman's son managed a snap shot as it run past the vehicle but only nicked and the next day the trail camera's picked a stag with blood trickling down it's side. It was walking fine ( no limp) and was about 3-4 Kms from where he shot it so we figured it was OK.
    This stag is close to the area where they shot and lost the other, most likely the say one and may be the reason he has the deformity.

    Just back from a trip, bloody windy time, the odd moan & roar, only found one wallow that had been touched up, got this old 9 pointer bush stalking yesterday, he was mud fat & not a hint of being pissed up, etc

    Finally got out a couple of times this week, nothing roaring in the particular area of the Wairarapa I was in however, heaps of sign and rubbings etc. Watched a hind for a wee while hoping a stag would follow but no go so, decided to take her and top up the freezer.
