Thread: Dundee Yards

Nice work @Dundee give Bo an extra biscuit for that one
How’s he doing retrieving at such distances? Do you use hand signals?
You must do! This for you unbelievers is why the bike is facing the wrong way. He stated at the start of the article that he’s only 5’4!
In the set up for the shot he has already anticipated that his marksmanship might bring results and would need to stand on the back of the bike so that the dog would be able to see his hand signals to finish the retrieve
Also any good farmers worth there salt would never drive across a paddock as it fecks up the grass which you need to produce milk so that you can bye quality firearms to take out the grass munchers that should not be their!

What the hell??

He is an example of what was described to me at one of the first hunting competitions I entered as a youngster. There were a group of young 20 something guys with the latest gear and rifles standing around making comments about some old fellas with 303s and rough looking clothing. The briefing finished with a comment something like and look out for those old bastards they know there gear.
Guess who bought in the biggest red, best head, biggest sika, and best head. The old guys.
Shooting is being familiar with the terrain, and your equipment and dundee certainly knows that rifle.

He must also train the ammunition as the remington golden bucket o bullets is not known for its target porential.

Somebodies extracting the urine me finks....

That dog must do some yards it isn't overweight.
No reason to disbelieve Dundee.

Maybe it stopped for a nap about halfway across.

Between yourself and R93 nothing is safe from the mighty .22!!!

ya right dundee ..my 1st rig was a p14stirling with a 4x28 nikko tiara scope up top .with a big 3celltorch under barrel many a snarling buck jackos sex life was ended by 40gn of rabbit ammo or hushpoint in the bloody noggin.
later mounted a tasco 4x40 on it and again headshot many jackos and more than a few rabbits who fondly(stupidly0thought hes outta sight outta mind .......oops
I rue the day i sold it .
bloody grouse shooting and a bloody grouse dog.
the cracks about ya height -FFS allgood things come in small parcels,casn watties dynamite &dundee.

I was waiting for the classic fishing photo where you hold the fishy out at full arms length to make it look larger...

Mind you, if Dundee held up a bunny it would probably look like a bloody monster hare !

Not bad for a midget grunt and and his mighty 22 bro

I have my doubts about that rangefinder Dundee. Ive also looked through the scope of that 22 and couldn't see my ute at 20 yards .
But I'll give the drunk one thing he can shoot, he sacked a yearling at 550 yards with a gun he hadnt fired before in trying conditions more than most internet hunters could do.
He also walked 18k in those fucking gumboots...

When we walked the milford track back in 83 I think it was we met an old retired farmer from pio pio half way through the first day. He was coming back from Milford having gone both ways. Footwear was a pair of redbands he'd worn gumboots all his life . Mind you we had solid rain for the rest of the trip and suddenly his footwear seemed a good choice

On a school trip walked around Waikaremoana in gumboots. 40+ years ago.
They were beauty on all the wet bits.
Mind you used to run round in either barefeet ,gumboots or footy boots.
Then graduated to lace up gumboots Ashleys? with No 8 wire laces.
Wore them for years when shepherding.
Picked up hay in often in jandels.
