Maryland Double Header Fair chase Sika Hunt
Check out this great sika hunt our team did last year! Watch as Chad and Toby Otwell harvest, to our knowledge, two of the largest, fair chase Sika stags ever captured on professional video, on Maryland’s Eastern Shore.

I got to do some Sika hunting a few yrs ago for Assateague Island, wild ponies everywhere and they are some sneaky critters. Want to go back so bad and try it again. It was the last weekend to hunt them and they were nocturnal

From what I have been told they are almost always nocturnal.

that would make sense then. Some buddies who have been before said you almost got to jump them up like rabbits as they stay bedded down in some think stuff.
After 3 days of hunting and not finding anything we were leaving at dark on the 3rd night from Section 5 I believe and had 24 or 25 standing in the road when we went to close out gate.

Managed to Bowhunt them several years back in Dorchester County. Once when the were Bugling & another when they were not. lots of blood drawn "BY THE SKEETERS" in those Marshes but not much by me. My son killed a six with no points-all broken off from fighting..nubs where they had been.
