Very nice write up and pics. Been to Germany some and always noticed the box stands like you show. Be a neat experience to go on a hunt like that.
Seems like there are plenty of antler-less deer taken on hunts like this, are the ones with large horns reserved for others?

I'm glad you got to experience hunting in Germany. I was stationed at Illesheim Germany from '92 to '95 and got to hunt there some myself. Got my Jagdschein while I was there and Killed a few Roe Deer. I used to foam at the mouth while watching the Red Stag on Graffenwoehr range but never got to hunt any of those. The hospitality of the German hunter that took me in was, as you experienced, exceptional.
Glad you had a great time and thanks for sharing. Great writeup.

Just over a month. I'll be bringing over a box o' Butt-Out Tools, to show expose them to the best of American hunting. The big hurdle will be sneaking in some summer sausage from Prasek's Hilje Smokehouse. I dunno that the customs guys will be very hospitable toward foreign wurst. Still, I'm very much looking forward to this hunt. Those chihuahua deer had better watch out! FC

Say, that critter looks fierce. I shall have to azz-choot him with a varmint bullet. A .204 oughta suffice.  Surely you all have the, "Bavarian Heart Shot", no? FC

The "Bavarian Heart Shot" - ah, yes.
Say - time flies. We are getting up there, are we not?
Do bring the hat, you hear?
