    These are the 3 sika stags we took back in April. All were roaring or came into roars.

    Got this 12 on saturday morning. 350 yard shot with the old faithful 300wm dropped him on the spot. 2 of his mates took off up the ridge but they got away. Pretty happy hes my best head in 18 years of hunting deer.

    Out beyond ideas of wrongdoing, and right-doing, there is a field. I will meet you there.
