Thread: Kaimai hunt

That last pick looks like good bush for the Kaimais. The bush in there is not bad in the few places that they didn't mill back in the day. You're doing well to have seen them. Now you just gotta go back there and get em How long have you been hunting for?

Must be and American spelling thing. It works on Tappatalk but not on pc.

Great trip Rusky.
When the 2 deer departed, was the wind up your arse? If not slow down in those hot zones they may have heard something and moved a short distance on high alert.

1st time I hunted there I shot a hind within 40min of starting out as walking 100m+ from a farm fence. 2nd time not a thing on the open tops for the night.
They are where they are

Yours show as words to me :thumbdown:

Phillip, ive been hunting 8 or so years but never done bush hunting really. Hunt private land and open faces mostly. I was stoked when i finally saw some as I knew I was doing most things right.

Good stuff. Bush hunting is really exciting and challenging isn't it? Get right in close, close enough to smell them - gets the blood pumping!

Sako, the wind was a cross wind so no chance of them sniffing me. Think they heard me more then anything. They went down hill but didn't go to investgate where exactly they went. No barks tho.

A successful trip nonetheless
I use to beat myself up with "what if" and " if only i had..." - mind fucking. now i take it all in my stride and learn a lesson for next time

Yep all but of the learning experience. Think next time ill have a better idea of what to do. Hopefully in a few weeks time.

I will investigate next Thursday

You're a genius, Gibo, lets hope your wife never finds out
