After a few trips to a work station down in the wairarapa I finally managed my first buck after seeing one last time but not having the chance to get it. 300wsm and 178eldx @ 80m through the engine room meant he wasn't going anywhere.
Yeah boy! Glad you finally got one of those sneaky buggers!
Nice buck!
Nice Jordy!
Real nice Buck, good on ya.
Got this last week, very nice meat. A little bit like pork
Loving the rifle and sling!
Nice nice
New rem mag is going well. Unfortunately he broke off one side when he hit the deck
Nice. Looks like he was an older stag and was really close to shedding.The bigger older ones shed first. That will be why it "broke" off. Ive seen them drop of simply from the bullet impact into the shoulder.Quote:

working on deer farm today quite a few spikers have big furry velvets and saw two stags out of about 500 that had pretty full racks of velvet....a few antler buttons were seen on ground,most stags still had buttons in place but few had new growth......
Have quite a few older stags shedding buttons now. Being busy shedding for the last week.

It was the guides new rifle. Steyr Mannlicher 9.3 x 62. First animal downed with it, from about 150M. Great tasting meat, not gamey at all. Getting the head mountedQuote:

First deer for my boy.I don’t know much about fallow but been told it’s a decent head.shot him at 120 yards with my 7 mag.
someone else has had a go at him note the second photo there is a bullet hole through his paddle.
Man watching a young one shoot their first deer is something to observe!

Well done young man, you are right about watching your kids shoot their first deer. Both my daughters have shot their first. Nerve wracking waiting for the shot to break and for it to be a good shot.
But worth the wait for sure.Quote:
