Thread: Help a lowlife

G'day all,

Looking for someone willing to help out a lowly aussie - you may have heard that we like to come over to hunt all your deer and sleep with all your women. Well that may be true, but with a wife and three young kids I'm too tired so I'll content myself with trying to get a stag for myself.

I am still yet to hunt chamois and would really like to but there's something about sika that gets under your skin. Thinking I'd like to get over to chase them.

I used to hunt with my brother, he now hunts a different style to me and spends his time with our youngest brother so I pretty well hunt by myself and would likely come over by myself.

I prefer to hunt with flintlock muzzleloaders or open sight centrefire rifles so would rather some bush hunting where shots are typically sub 100m.

If anyone is open to giving me some advice please send me a pm, I'd really appreciate it.

cheers,

Youll have to beat the kiwis off if your after a sheep

@SmokeyJason may be your man.....

Not overly keen on either of those things myself, though I'm a new aged guy so I don't judge others!

I do have a couple of bows, haven't used them for a few years. I've seen others do some impressive shooting with them but I was never much good myself.

I suppose bows still work in the rain quite well at least, but don't write off the old flintlock she's filled my freezer more than once!

definately NOT writing them off..more saying the skill set needed to be sucessful is just as challenging.

I'm far from an expert but I find the locks are as individual as people. The biggest challenge is figuring out what each one likes, nothing worse than a purely tuned/functioning lock.
