'Cervus elaphus'

Red Stag are a large deer with a body weight of around 400lb.  They have unique antlers of large size with trophy heads of 6x6 (12 points) and more, some heads can be over 20 points. 

He 'Rut/Roar' starts late March and ends late April. This is a prime time to hunt Stags, as they are vocal, roaring out challenges to other stags.

Red Stag can be called in close by roaring out challenges to which they respond to, at this time of year the hunter has the advantage as stags can be located by sound.

Red Stags can be hunted from February to September. Hinds (Female) and management animals can be hunted all year round..
