About LinkBacksRushy, there is about half an inch left of the brow tine, must have given the scrappy old bugger one hell of a head ache when he broke it off.

Then he was a battler. Any sign of goring? I can see the result of antler scrapes on his left shoulder

What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!

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

he had scars all over his body, there were a couple of fresh bruises on one of the back steaks. we were sure there was a bigger stag in the area. I found out after I got back from the block, that a 15 pointer had been shot up the valley from us in the next block.

Tough as old boots he was. Only one Bez tine, but had good potential. Looking forward to getting his jaw aged, 'cos I reckon he might be older than his head suggests.

My sad effort - crap 6 point head, but plenty of patties n salami outa this boy.
No big story - walked about 4km from where we left the truck, and he was head down bum up feeding in the middle of the river bed. Was not interested in roaring etc just feeding - had to get really agro on the horn to make him lift his head to be able to shoot him!
