You still over here @Taff ?
That's tiny Taff. How much meat comes from the average boned out animal?
Not a lot @ Rushy if you hit them through the front shoulder you can kiss goodbye to both and just eat the rear end.
Also there an utter bugger to skin:yuush: but still bloody fun to hunt, anything that used to live alongside tiggers is a challenge to hunt ah:thumbsup:
Cool little deer.
Awesome little deer to hunt! I shot a couple of bucks on my OE in 2013.
Great memories :)
Awesome looking animal. I imagine because of their size they would be very challenging.

You’d soon have plenty to shoot, they breed all year round, the does mate when seven months old and then produce a fawn every seven months mating immediately after giving birth. The bucks are aggressive little beggars, they fight other bucks for territory using their their antlers and long canines which is why many have broken fighting tackle. The bucks have a shield around their shoulders for protection which is partly why they are difficult to skin. Bucks will make a mess of a dog if cornered, I’ve seen two labradors which have been slashed open along their flanks when they’ve surprised a munty buck when picking up on pheasant shoots. Fascinating little beasts and they are tasty too, joints are just the right size for the slow cooker!
