Re: Red deer thread

Oh missed that one - sorry Chasseur - if you are asking about antlers then those are 6-7kg, while fully grown stags weight (on the hook with head and legs but without intestines) is 160-220kg.

Meanwhile - managed to bag another on Sunday:

Was following this guy with hinds and a smaller "side" stag from early Sunday morning (still dark) - there were other hunters on them as well. Reds outmanouvered other guys and got pass me as well - however I put in higher gear and 2 hours later high just under the top of big hill connected with them in a thick bush area where nobody sane would follow since it was so thick that stag would sence you before any reasonable sight of him...I pushed it quite some and with some luck spooked the smaller stag (that wasn't quite sure what I am) but it only made a couple of strides - just enough to unsettle old stag that came through and chased it off but made one turn to much - at 7m I shot it through both shoulders with 8x68S - mad 30m dash and he was down. Picture as it ended.






Found the bullet (Blaser CDP loaded by RWS) on the off-side peaking through hide



...pic with "grandeln" aside



On stag - it is an older management sub trophy to be taken out...but it was a Hunt!
