Almost heaven
Had an amazing adventure in the marshes of Dorchester Md yesterday. Sucessfully killing a hind and stag sika deer from my saddle. Public land. It was one of my most memorable hunts nothing about it is typical and i cant wait to go back.

Awesome job. So many things about them are difficult....The terrain, the small size, the will to live. Very hard creatures to kill. Some of the best eating as well. Congrats.

I'm bumping this up because this hunt is so easily accessible by east coasters and an amazing experience. Nothing like a whitetail.

You see how small they are. Try hitting the ten ring at 30 yards from a tree. Add the fact they can take a hit like no creature I've seen.

Hats off once again.
 
I hunted them on the VA side a few times, no luck with a bow but we would hammer them with firearms. Congrats man! They are some good eating.

Thanks,
Boswell

Awesome. I know nothing about Sika deer. Early season is best for them? Were they already rutting during your hunt?
