    Veitnamcam, yea i did and he was probably only 2years old. I shot him in a native gorge in the middle of a central north island pine forest that has good genes and unlimited food. One day i will bring the jaw out for aging and will know for sure.

    Welcome Dirtyface. Well done.
    It takes 43 muscle's to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger pull.
    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!
    Rule 1: Treat every firearm as loaded
    Rule 2: Always point firearms in a safe direction
    Rule 3: Load a firearm only when ready to fire
    Rule 4: Identify your target beyond all doubt
    Rule 5: Check your firing zone
    Rule 6: Store firearms and ammunition safely
    Rule 7: Avoid alcohol and drugs when handling firearms

    First time in sika country on an overnight trip, managed to scrape this little bug up in the morning. He roared 40 meters away and came in fairly quick.
    Shit loads of sign everywhere, even on the track.

    Absolutely no condition on him whatsoever. First for 3 species this year red-fallow-sika and I must say sika are my new favourite species for sure!.
