Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Australia Show Us your Sambar

Got any good sambar put them up I’ve taken afew over the years

I'll bet you they taste like Elk!

Not sure but I’m tipping your elk would be nicer!, reds eat better than sambar, but I still like eating it

Yeah found them a bit tasteless and tough.
Good for sausages though.

lots of meat on them. Take a bit of putting down too.

This one fell off a cliff you can see I’m holding a piece of the left antler up as it was smashed to pieces ended up getting a knife made from this stag

This bloke was bloody hardwork to find in the blackberries he ran 400m perfect heart shot only reason I knew I hit him was cause of how fast he took off!

Nice deer, but what's the story with the no trousers?

So are using a .35 WSM on those?

A lot of them I am it’s the Kimber ,
The one that ran along way I used my Tikka 270wsm with 160grain partitions , that rifle combo flattened some big deer , the 35 makes a big difference but I still wouldn’t hesitate to use the 270wsm that’s a great calibre

This was a fun hunt to dogs worked really well I put up four deer and nailed two with the custom no1 mk3 303
It got busy!

31” inches

Question, have you taken a metal detector back along that creek?

31" is outstanding.

What's the rifle setup?

Why is he not wearing pants?

Maybe Pants are Optional in the Bush.

Guess that's how Kiwis party.

Mad white kiwis don’t feel pain! 😂

Its often wet and shorts are better than wet pants legs.
Rifle is a 30 06 mauser with a suppressor.

Reini Streiker had the best sambar head I ever saw

That’s a classic for sure but there’s been some incredible heads taken since and quite afew have been taken by young keen fellas getting amongst it , 2014 -2018 was huge for big deer dropped off abit now but there still out there the fun and hard work is finding them on your feet rather the mobile couch

So where are the best heads, in the state of Victoria in Australia or the North Island of New Zealand?

They turn up everywhere if let to grow out and there’s good feed the best heads come afew years after fires it seems

Might have to try NZ, 35sambar has already shot all the good ones here

Haha thanks there is many that are better and have done so quicker than me I had a good few years which made a huge difference been slack the last few but hope to throw the pack on at least once this year to break the drought, you just got to get out there plod along and look more than you walk when you feel they should be around or sit on a hill and glass faces you know they get on it’s fun and anyone can do it

Knife handles :-)

Looks like you have a smudge right in the middle of the camera lens… 😁

Just respecting the privacy.


I will say though that there is nothing wrong with the lady's voice.

Don't bitch at me fella...you posted these on international television and the internet.


Now..."have some respect".

Favorite pic is the one where your holding the broken antler in the creek with the old stag warrior that's as cool as it gets!
Thanks for shareing!

Mate let his dogs out for a run tonight and saw this fella out in the gully behind the yards , before he could get ready he ducked off into the bush again chasing a Hind ,
Started eating his tea and looked out the window and saw him back again nearly choked on his potato’s getting it down raced out and got him from about 250m with his 300 weatherby, very rutty thrashing tussocks and carrying on , never knew what hit him he soaked it up well and said if the barnes didn’t break his offside shoulder he would’ve gone far even with no lungs left
30x29

You wouldn't mind your tea getting cold if that was on offer!

Great looking stag!
