Muntjac Pictures

[UKHunter]

I managed to shoot my biggest Muntjac buck to date last night. Im going to send him off to measured as I think he could be a medal buck. It was quick shot to take him as he was moving around in thick cover and was only presenting shots for a second at a time, so I had no idea how good he was until I walked up to him.

He was shot in an area of the estate that I have shot a lot of deer from and I had not seen him before. It just goes to show that you dont get like that by being stupid. He wasn't a particularly old deer and was in great condition.

Here are some other big boys ive shot this season as a comparison.

This is another nice buck and was a very old beast.

Hope you enjoy the pictures.

Best wishes,

Tom

I have to say they are my favorite of the UK deer species to stalk. They rarely leave cover making them hard to spot and then are always shifting around making taking a shot a challenge.

Yes, each antler is about 10cm in length and both have a 1 cm brow tine. A nice symmetrical head, so hopefully it makes the grade.

They not only look it, but taste it. The best venison I have eaten is a Muntjac.

Very late posting this but he is cleaned up and ready to be mounted on a shield. I took this pic before I stuck his canines back in so you can see the size of them and the damage they can cause fighting

Dracula with cloven hoofs.

Congrats on your success. thanks for sharing.

This is another one of those species, like the Vallie was for me, that I had zero interest in until I started hearing about where they lived and how they are hunted.

One of these days.

They are not shy to use those teeth as one of our beaters dogs has found out two weeks in a row
