No good tahr on the coast go east coast it's easier hunting. . . . . ..

They are tough tho just good shot placement and don't think oh I hit it keep putting them into them till they are down even more so if it's a good mature bull.


You don't need to buy new gun for them unless you need a excuse to buy a new gun.

Yes there can be longer shots if your capable but if not the animal deserves more respect them to have lead and copper thrown at them. Just get closer. Always easier to hunt down on them then up to them

Thanks Tui, I'd prefer to get a bit closer if I can I enjoy the stalk a lot more then pulling the trigger. Solid advice all round guys thanks.
