Naand manne,
Ek probeer elke jaar iets skiet wat ek nog nie geskiet het nie?
Gaan volgende naweek bietjie BWB skiet, maar het hom al vantevore geskiet.
Die plaas het ook Fallow Deer, wat ek nog nie geskiet het nie, maar ek verstaan dat jy hom n sekere tyd van die jaar maar liewer moet los, want dan is sy vleis nie lekker in die bord nie.
Ek weet van hom niks.
Die ouens wat weet, help n bietjie.

Re: Fallow Deer
Skiet n "spiker" of n lekker vet ooi. Laat hang hom/haar n paar dae en saag op soos n skaap. Lekkerste vleis wat daar is.

Re: Fallow Deer
Blykbaar as die ramme in hulle 'rut' of teel tyd ingaan is hulle nie lekker nie maar dis eers later in die jaar. Glo jy kan gooi en sal nie spyt wees nie dit is regtig lekker vleis

Re: Fallow Deer
Teeltyd was nou in Maart/April en daarna is die ramme baie maer weens hul bakleiery en min eet.
Skiet 'n ooitjie - so middel 20kg se vleis en eet baie lekker.

Re: Fallow Deer
Ek kan net beaam wat die manne sê. Ek het al self daai toets een Mei gedop. Skiet n ram met groot horings vir n nice skedelmontering en gee die vleis vir jou tuinjong, of skiet n vet ooi vir vleis.

Re: Fallow Deer
As others have said the rut takes place in March/April in the E Cape and the stags lose a lot of weight and condition.
Hunting a new species is always exciting. Circumstances and personal preference dictates whether the first of a new species that we hunt will be a male or female. Circumstances aside, a hunter may have a preference of which gender his first of certain species should be or it might not matter to him at all. For most of my new species I preferred to shoot a male. Most of them were trophy males. But it's entirely a personal choice.
If you want to shoot a stag as your first fallow deer I'd say go for it. I shot a trophy stag at the end of April 2008 in the Queenstown area. I used the meat of that stag exclusively for biltong and drywors and it was fine.
If you don't mind whether it's a male or female and if you want the meat for the table then, as others have said, rather shoot a female. It's still a fallow deer anyway.
