Denny, the chital is impressive.  I've heard they are one of the wariest deer out there.  And of course the buff are always impressive.

When Rik mentioned Brad's shore lunches, I pulled up a couple of pics from one of last years shore lunches.  This is Brad and the start of lunch.



And the elaborate cooking utensils.



We ate the fish off of a piece of bark.

BTW, about the picture of Brad, Don and you.  It appears you and Don would fit right in with the local Snake Bay residents.

If you've clicked on the links Denny provided above, you probably thought you were just seeing an Axis deer, no different from what you could hunt on a ranch in Texas. Piece of cake, right?  Wrong.

For those of you who have not yet hunted Chital in wild Australia: they are just a little bit harder to stalk and kill with a bow than Pronghorn. Maybe a little more than just a little bit. . .

To kill both Chital and Big buff on the same hunt, well, that's just about as good as it gets.

Awsome buddy,,A true life hunt for sure,,JB

Impressive.  As always.

Denny, Nice work. That is an awesome specimen. Must have benn a memorable Hunt.

Congrats Denny  

Rik, I was very lucky on the chital. Lucky Cashy spotted it and lucky the wind was gusting while rain poured down.

Mark, Brad looks like croc bait squating next to the water. LOL

Sweeet! thanks for sharin.

Congrats Denny, looks like you guys had a great trip. I was talking with your dad at Compton, he mentioned one of the guys with you was trying for buff with a very light bow. How did that go?

Smitty was within 3 yards of a big bull and decided not to try after seeing the size and toughness of the buffs.

Wow....what a hunt!!! That's what it's all about, Denny. Good for you, man.      

Hope to make a hunt for pigs and Chital down under in the next few years. I don't shoot enough horsepower for buff though   :eek:

Awesome Denny!!!Congrats.  

Congrats Denny.  Are we gonna see the video soon?
I'm trying to get a hunt worked out for next year...still got the Africa bug too bad this year   .  Brady

What broadhead did you use. Mike

I used 770 grain Beman MFX shafts with Wensel Woodsmans for the chital and Zwickey prototype heads for the buffs.

Good to see you had fun here . Its a pity we dont see more of us using the stick and string to take these great beasts .

Welcome back bud...congratulations!!!  Great pix
