Can confirm! This is how I finally got my Roe buck, and the river area is rather flat so makes shots a bit easier. The rest of the species were a piece of cake. Thanks for the event EW, theHunter Classic is incredible. Cheers

Yep, northern part of river is full of roe deer. I had very good luck hunting there today. Not only very first attempt with roe buck was a success for Valentine's days mission, but two bucks in the row where over 30kg and I completed "silent justice" mission which I was very hesitant to even attempt to do as 30kg+ bucks are very uncommon.

Thanks HooCairs. I figured I was missing some step. I don't normally post but was concerned that if I was having problems newbies would too. Also store is back to normal. I didn't want my favorite game to loose out on revenue.

For whitetail bucks use the middle hunting tower on Loggers Point.

I put my tent to the west of the tower, near the garage/barn, and walk downhill to the tower using the trough next to and below the road that bypasses the tower.

Wow, obviously you are a much better shot than I am. Getting a heart shot on all these deer is one of the more difficult and frustrating missions I have tried in this game.

I struggled with some of the deer too. I ended up shooting many from the front. Maybe you wanna give that a try. Lay flat and lure them. When about 20m away, equip the bow which will make you rise. Then shoot for heart and make sure to aim low. Cupid arrows fly a bit different.

OMG, I finally finished the mission!!

This is my first time hunting Roe deer in Classic, and man, are the bucks a pain. They come rocketing in to calls like coyotes do, and won't stop until they are in spooking distance.

I put a treestand on VDB, on the island by the 'Devils grin', at 3419, -1413, if others are looking for a good spot for the Roe deer. This treestand spot is nice as it overlooks the river, and you'll be tempted to shoot all the red deer and red fox wandering the area.

Whew! I was obsessed with completing this mission, and thank god its done! Thanks for the help and pointers guys!

Oh, and Thanks Dev's, for this valentine's week event.

finished, the hardest: the Roe Deer (male).
I never use the cupid arrows, a little different from the others. ;)
