Neale you are right mate but read the line under that third pic.
This stag is over the other estimates and from the downhill pic angles it changes the idea of length.Gone are the days of shoot and measure after.
I saw him side on at first,threw the binos up and thought 'gee he`s alright' then as said it was a race to get my camera out as there was only a very small window in the cover.
I was heading into a spot across a face and it was easier for the cam to be in the pack instead of my claw otherwise better angles of him in the open patch would be on here.
There is no polish on the pics as they were taken on an East fall after 5pm....sfa light for polished pics,besides sambar stags dont often give you time for that.
Someone would be happy to take him,there are a lot of sausages in that frame.
