Nice one sounder, i have done a little stalking(not as much as i would like to ) but is that not an unusual head for a fallow i.e the antlers,you are a lucky chap having access to that type of shooting hope your luck keeps up

[witton 6]

I was thinking that hasn't got the palmated antlers, looks like sika antlers???

looks to me like a red, fallow hybrid, very large looking (long back legs) large brow tine's, but no plamation, have seen young fallow bucks with no palmation though, but he looks big.....
