I shot a small fallow buck in Argentina a few years ago, and it was by far the most difficult critter to hunt--I killed a free range stag, a blackbuck and a European wild boar within a couple days, but the fallow took 4 or so days by itself.
Great hunt.

I don't know about "fallow." Looks like he's been sowing some oats......

I've never been a fan of eating buck venison but it will go well in sausages or minced up. . What color is the sky on your planet??

Nice rack! Is the meat any different than a whitetail? I've heard that commercially sold venison is fallow deer. Does anyone know if that's true?

He's pretty tasty...... ![[Linked Image]](https://s6.postimg.org/7t5ye3x1t/IMG_2530.jpg) Any experienced Aussie hunter will tell you that a free range mature fallow buck is one of the most difficult animals to take as they are more solitary and even drift off from the herds to rest during the day in a secluded spot away from the does. Congrats Tom, He might nudge 200 inches on the Douglass Score. John

Mister Ingwe; It's all very nice, but the animal has significant antlers. It hardly qualifies as a dink. What were you thinking? I've cleaned it up for you, getting rid of all that extra rackage. ![[Linked Image]](http://genesis9.angzva.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/02/ingwedink1.jpg) That'll be a " click and save" for this years Dinkathon... You'll probably still have to bribe the judge.

Nice buck for a dude that is as old as the .30/06 itself.

First time I ever saw one of those was in a city park outside of South Orange, New Jersey

I want one. High fence, low or a free range?
