Apologies for the late replies gents, life seems to have become insanely busy of late!
Very nice indeed. Great work, and now you get to enjoy the tasty meat for some time to come!
Thanks mate! Yes we've already had some of the backstrap, was superb.
Very nice, do you add any fat to the ground meat?
So this buck actually had a fair bit of fat on him; the fallow deer in my local area seem to be incredibly healthy especially this time of year, and have been feeding on olives and blackberries. I don't find Fallow deer fat to be greasy either; I know some people are not fans of deer fat but it's never bothered me.
Very nice. I spent time in NSW and made several great friends. It is on my wishlist to go back down and hunt with them. One friend specifically really gets after the deer and he loves to get our elk and mule deer pics. When they come to the States next time it is my job to show them some Rocky Mountain Bighorn.
This is a NSW pic from last year.
Mate that is a cracker! I would be happy with a rack like that any day, congratulations. That's a trophy most of your neighbours won't have!
I'd be the same mate, I dream of coming over one-day to hunt Elk, Muleys and possibly even a Brown bear. But I don't know where to start!
Congrats on a great buck, his face is very cool.
I would love to have one of those some day.
Thanks mate, much appreciated; yes I was very impressed with his battle scars. I would have loved to take a full mount but did not have the facility or funds to do it this year, just a skull cap. I'd love to be in a position to be able to 'swap hunts' with someone overseas oneday.
Congrats, looks like a cross between a mule deer and a caribou, pretty cool looking.
Yeah they are like mini-moose in a way with their big palms. Quite unique when you put them up against some of the more 'tiney' racks.
Thanks mate!
Great looking buck! What caliber did you shoot him with?
Thanks mate, I got this fellow with a 6.5 Creedmore Winchester Deer Season XP. It's more than enough for these guys. They usually top out at 100kg.
Cool to see something different and hope to make it your way someday, thanks for sharing.
100% man I look at all the stuff you guys get to hunt and feel the same! One guys normal is another guys exotic!
That’s cool.
Your burger looks like it needs a 2nd grind.
I like it a bit more course, a lot of it will end up as bolognese
