    I thought about Kumeti yesterday but figured it would be the same, plus it is 2 hours drive for me each way which makes turning around a harder decision despite the obvious wisdom of doing so if I had found the same thing.

    I have never roared in that many hunters before. I wouldn't want to be a deer in that place.

    Did manage this one the other week.

    First deer I've shot, roared a few times from a good spot on a nob at the head of a valley. Had my shooting lanes all sorted and this fulla strolled in to see who was snagging his pozzy. Whacked him at about 25m, he went about 30m before going down. Freezer is a bit fuller, but now I've really got the bug!
