Hunting in the Mount Beauty area I bumped a large stag which I managed to stalk to within 50 metres of. I could see him clearly and he was looking straight at me, I raised my rifle but he then moved behind some tees so I did not have a clear shot and he ran off. It was exhilarating to get so close to this large and elusive animal. All in all a great day out in the bush and nothing was harmed in the making of this adventure, so no free range organic venison, this time.
The relatively flat and easy going topography.
