Birthday Buck
Y QUEST for a big fallow started after I shot
my first buck on a guided hunt, which was my
21st birthday present. Fast forward 12 years and
many hunts later, I finally realised my goal. To
make things even better, I actually managed to do it on my
33rd birthday, it sure was a great birthday present.M
