    Yip, shady side of the hill just up out of the creek. Wind in our face and just stood there lookin at us - for a short time anyway.
    Blowys are real bad but I just did back wheels, back steaks, and one shoulder, so all done and dusted in 10 minutes or so.

    Nice going, sort of makes the deer a bit more predictable as you said.

    I found a nice cool gully in the Kaimais yesterday, the dog enjoyed playing in the pools. Plenty of sign on the ridge just above, but the walk out was very warm so I was glad I didn't have to carry a deer out!
    It was a good day, found a new area, dog's first walk in the bush, and she wasn't bothered at all by 308 suppressed subsonic shots. And probably cooler in the bush than at home.

    Saw a stag on a clearing at 11 this morning and shot a hind on the walk out at 12.15 in Clements mill rd.hot walk on the carry out that’s for sure.
