A friend of mine were actually out moose hunting this morning when this stag came a bit too close He had a camera mounted to his rifle...2'nd shot was lethal and the third shot was just to be sure!

Deer stag shot at 1,5m

Eish man...his first shot sat just nice (if he'd wait for a min or two - 2&3 woudn't be needed IMO)...stags aint no hares jk

I wasn't there so I can't judge from the clip whether the fist shot was deadly or not, but better to be safe than sorry

All three shots justified in my book. No need to risk it suffering longer than necessary.

Agreed.

It might have taken another minute or 5 for it to die properly.

Sometimes those second shots at standing wounded game are the hardest.


On the deer coming towards the hunter, the deer looked like he was running from something and then got a real fright when he saw the hunter as he veered and jumped at the same time.

I expected he needed a tot of Brandy, or that death-water stuff, after that.

Good shooting!

PS, what calibre was the rifle Geir?

Well done under presure i say and i also think the three shots were needed. Thanks for sharing that would have been a bit of an adrenalin rush no need for laxative

His caliber is 30-06 (7,62x63), and i'm sure he did wet his pants still shakeing I guess!
