Got a Fallow!!
« on: October 09, 2016, 06:32:00 PM »
Well hunting has been a little slow here at home, but I had booked an exotic hunt a couple moths ago. It started Friday evening, and about 30 minutes into my first sit, I had a group of Fallow does come in. I had to wait a little bit for them to get into range, and they were a little spooky, but finally the biggest one gave me a broadside shot at 16 yards. I was able to connect, and within just a few minutes after the shot I had my hands on my first traditional archery kill other than a couple squirrels!! Saturday evening I managed to miss a pig, just got in a hurry and didn't pick a spot and shot right over the top of it. Anyway, it was a great hunt and I couldn't be more happy!! Got her with my Maddog Mountaineer and a VPA 200 grain 3 blade.

Nice. Well done.
We have plenty of fallow here in Australia. They are pretty adaptable creatures, are they not worried about them getting away and starting a feral population? I wonder if they would hybridize with your whitetails? Interesting stuff.
