Just wondering, stationed out here on Guam military,Hog hunting is great but the deer here has to be the toughest animal to hunt...

[jclguam]

TO, guess its more like "LUCKY".. beatiful wite sandy beaches,tropical jungles, unlimited hog hunting and ocassional unlimited deer hunting tags. $15 hunting license, $10 deer tags... a real tropical paradise, feels more like im on a 4yr. vacation.

Sounds very nice. Back in the  'Nam era the non-conformist service men were sent there. If you were a screw up, they would shave your head and send you to Guam!!  Sounds pretty good now though. HQ  is OK with you hunting? Sounds like a good gig. What are the deer like?  Very very small? Are there any predators?

[jclguam]

TO", they run a very good hunting program out here,its actually run by the US Air Force on military land, more so for depredation. the deer out here is a cross between philippine sanbar and whitetail, the bucks average #150 although some have been recorded well over #200 and a very few #300 pounders, they are mostly nocturnal and very spooked in the daylight hours wich makes them extremely challenging to hunt especially with archery equipment. a quick compact bow/crossbow is a must...no predators just feral dogs and poachers..

Can you bring the back straps back to the mess hall? Or do you have on site housing? What are the antlers like? Do you have a Guamy taxidermist?

[jclguam]

TO' most of the game harvested are donated to local charity,otherwise you can basically do as you please with your catch, there are a few taxidermist, antlers are common at six pointers...check out Guam hunting on you tube...
