Just a moan or two yesterday afternoon in pureora , shit they are roaring late this year!
4am tomorrow morning im off for a nosey round for the day, hoping to see/hear some longnecks but also secretly hoping to see a 9"+ chamois buck, theyre lighter to carry :thumbsup:
Still no roaring in my usual spot in Pureora, just a moan or two and that was it.
Managed to get a spiker near a wallow, with my old husquy open sight in 9.3x57. A first kill with this gun.
Took me 3 hrs to get the carcass out.
It takes me 1h and 1/4 to walk to my hunting spot, so with a 50 or 60 kg carcass I am slowed down a bit.the knees are still holding, touch wood. I got back into a bit fitness after Christmas , lost 6 kg ( and could do with another 6 to 10 less) and the heart is pumping a bit better. I also had a good mate with me to swap over the load along the way, I must admit that helps :-)
Some mate were in McIntosh hut area last week. heaps of very good Jap roaring in there. Were I was hunting 2 weeks ago near Tarawera pub the reds were only desultory but about 6 km north they were going to town really well. Go figure!
Just got back from a wander down south.
Heard 6 stags, 2 going really well on their own.
A lot of animals moving around.
