Well done @Mooseman that's a cracker. Reckon it will take awhile to beat that one.
It sure will be, they don't come easy as a rule, this one was in the right place at the right time, bit like most as 5 minutes either side of when I got him he wouldn't have been there. We do have a better stag in this area we have been following for about 3 years on the trail cameras , we think he could be around the 240 DS, hard to tell until the tape is on them,but he is big.
That's a wonderful head. And what a Beast of an animal!
@Mooseman what do you do with the meat? Just sausages and small goods?
Awesome. How long was the longest antler?

We gave this to a friend, we prefer a nice bit of red deer for steak. Sambar is ok for small goods. I know a few people that like it for steak etc but we don't. Yes he certainly is a beautiful stag the characteristics of this stag are similar to PD but we know it's a different one as the nicks out of his ears don't match with PD. This stag turned up three days befor I got him and we have never seen him before. Strange how they just turn up.

28.5 Inches, he makes the score with the long tops, beams, cornet, spread etc
Congratulations. Impressive. Strong animals to go 70m after that damage.
PD has slightly better length on top from memory.... been a while since ive seen a pic. Can you pop up a similar pic of them both to peruse by any chance?
Penny just dropped OH you mean ONE of THOSE :thumbs::thumbs::thumbs: DAYS:thumbsup:
Hey @Gibo Here are a couple of pic's of PD in 2018 the one picture we have of him this year I don't have at the moment but Beeman thinks he has better brow tines but possibly a bit shorterAttachment 111739Attachment 111740
You can see the similarity of PD and the one I got, but in the top picture you can see the nicks out of the top of his left ear, mine had a nick out of the bottom of his ear nothing out of the top.
Bloody similar though aye
Year there Granddad was a bit of a STUD;)
Sowed him some oats:thumbsup:
@Mooseman you might have to add another chapter to that book [emoji106]
I for one are still waiting for the forum release [emoji3]

Fantastic beast, Mooseman just awesome.
Nice job good old x55
Yep quite impressed with the old 6.5x55 doesn't break any speed or energy records but sure does work. My Sambar was officially scored yesterday , he goes 212 1/8 DS, really pleased with him.
Ive got 3 of them its a no fuss round
When I got mine the first load I tried using 2213 SC was good so I increased the powder charge till I got the velocity I wanted and was still safe and that was that, very accurate ,mild to shoot and kills well. I like all my other calibers but if you could only have one it would be a good all rounder out to 500-600 yards.
Nice work! Been seeing some big prints myself, so guessing Red.
