    Wallowing Stag - Raw video

    The stag that I shot recently came charging across a face and headed to a wallow, where it spent quite some time before I shot it at 230 yards with my 7mm RM. I videoed the entire thing and thought some of you might be interested. He's a old stag that didn't appear to be holding hinds and was probably past his best; none the less he has a real character head that I'll glance at from time to time to remind me of the 2022 roar - which has been full of action.

    As they say, sometime you learn more watching them than shooting them.

    This one was good for both.

    That is so cool! Nice video. Sometimes I wonder if the deer get cold when they bathe in the mud during cold weather. How did you take the video? Is the camera on a stand?
