New Zealand trip of a lifetime
« on: April 13, 2025, 09:00:57 AM »
I just got home from the most amazing adventure. I never thought I would be able to do this, but I'm so glad I did. 4 hunters harvested 4 Stags and 2 fallow bucks. I'm only going to post my stag because I don't have permission to post everyone else's. I'll type up the story after things settle a bit here at home.
