Kay 3,709 Posted September 19, 2016 Author Report Share Posted September 19, 2016 Excellent kay , he's a big lad Dead chuffed I went out yesterday, he seems to have 16 points & I think he is the same stag that was up here last year, he appears a bit stockier across his back as well , perhaps as I have seen him early on in the rut , he wont look so impressive by the middle of October once he is shagged out Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Kay 3,709 Posted September 19, 2016 Author Report Share Posted September 19, 2016 nice work, was only just thinking whether theyve started around me. Its a bit early for me to be seeing any sizeable stags tbh, last year was around 3rd Oct & the rut was in full swing .... I guess he wont be tolerating any pricket's in a few weeks as he seemed to do yesterday Lovely thing to see & I am itching to get out tomorrow again 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
