Pere David Deer - 05/18/20 04:10 AM

I have had one on my bucket list since I was in college. I finally had the opportunity to harvest one this weekend. He will be excellent on the table and beautiful bull to add to the wall. Best part was I had my daughter with me for one of my bucket list critters.

They are from china, where they are trying to he re introduced in a few reserves now is my understanding but were extinct in their homeland, their is supposed to be to shelf will let you know when i pick it up from Kubys. They stay around water as they spend time in the water. It was a bucket list for me as i have always wanted to hunt one.
