went after the reds on 29th sep got to my spot early at 6am so my mate could get into another spot early. i had round hour and half before it was light enough to start to hunt, i could hear 4 stags roaring so was exited. as soon as it started to brighten up i started to stalk in, its round 2 km to the back of this property. not long after it got bright the stags stopped roaring but i layed down on top of a hill and let out 1 roar through a 1.25 ltr coke bottle, i got a reply immediatly and he was close round 400 hundred yrds. within 2 mins this fella appeared out of the trees at round 300 yrds

got this fella a couple of weeks ago, i was watching a long rushy feild 500 yrds long running down hill with clear cut forestry on 1 side and young trees on other.i had seen deer a couple of evenings before but lost light before i could get a shot, i stalked down to the bottom of feild as wind didnt suit from top.it wasnt a great evening with heavy showers so i was only half interested. the light was fading fast so i started to make my way back up when i spotted a dark shape coming through the clear cut heading into my feild. he jumped the fence and moved into a thick patch of ruches and stopp

had a good season so far with my hunting buddy (the scruffy fella with the beard) and my son with plenty of craic so i thought i would share a few pics. the big stag with the funny nose i roared him about 3/4s of a mile out of a forest to within 100 yrds of us with a coke bottle with ends cut off and he came running to us.

was out weekend before last and got this buck, i pulled up at my permission at first light and the minute i opened the door i could hear him grunting, he was around 800 yrds away as the crow flies but between me and him was rough ground mainly 5 ft tall ferns that are dead but not rotted down yet. bucks rut here every year but i never venture in there as i no the only way to get a animal out is by dragging it as a quad wont even get in there. i thought i would have a go and worry about the drag if i got him. 1 hour and 15 minutes later i was within 100 yrds of him, he was on a small hill in oa

ive had a good season so far so i thought id write about this hunt. i was driving to the next villiage last week when i spotted a sika stag grasing away 400 yrds up a hill, these deer are only 5 mins away from my home but we only take a couple a year to try to build the numbers up which they are, but there starting to get shot heavy again by other hunters so i decided to go for a stalk. i rang a mate whose never had a sika and he said hed be there in a hour. it was round 3.45 pm when we got up there and i dropped him off, i was just pulling away to stalk further around the hill when he waved m

headed out yesterday for a stalk with a mate, the weather was cold grey and damp but not as wet as past few days so thought we might catch a few out grasing. after dropping my mate at his spot i headed to mine. i hunted 2 places with not even a glimse of a deer then i went to the last place for last hour, i was almost finished hunting as light was fading fast when i spotted a yearling doe she had me spotted to and ran about 100 yards and stopped broudside to me, unfortunatly i couldnt shoot as she was between me and a road so i watched her trot off. i had 1 more green feild to check before cal

hi all had a good run on the deer since my last topic so thought i would write about a stalk i had last sunday week, got to my permission around 5.45 so only had just over a hour of light left but planned just to watch a couple of fields till dark. as soon as i stepped out the van i could hear 2 bucks grunting some way off in the forest so i decided to try and get in on one, i started to stalk through the forest thinking thy were closer than what they were. every time they would grunt i was trying to make good ground as time was against me, i kept going as i was only 20 yard in the forest and
