Thread: Whats your hunting footwear????

Morning Fellas since I cant sleep thanks to my brother in law F*&king work alarm going off and since Im not hunting till this arvo I figure I may as well start a thread.

So lets set the seen while out hunting the other day heading back to the hut I cross paths with another hunter... Now as I am a man of good character I assume everyone to be basically a good c&nt till I'm proven otherwise.... This Chap earned the nick name ABBO, as in Aboriginal (Now now all you PC Pricks put down your weapon and get those cross hairs off my forehead.)

For me in hunting terms been called an Abbo is a sign of high respect, I'll tip my hat to any bugger that can cross the out back wearing nothing but a loin cloth, barefeet a spear and boomarang and not die. I at times have manged to get myself geographically challeneged in the NZ bush with a compass!!

I personaly wear a pair of sturdy hiking boots with good ankle surport due to my ankles been F%$ked from playing rugby.

Other guys like those rubber gumboots with laces ,not enough ankle surport for me but each to ther own. I have heard of guys that like sneakers, others like my boss and Ewen McDonald like diving boots......

But never until 2 days ago did I think or imagine I would see a hunter wear nothing but a 3 of pairs of socks on his feet ( Winter atire) Summer its 2 pairs of socks.... Big Jessy!!! Hence why I gave this hunter the nickname ABBO!

So right at this point I was thinking this lad was a couple of cans short of a six pack..............

But he had a point, a part from been a good c%nt and sharing some good tips advive with me... his reasonoing was it allowed him to be quieter in the bush..... And as the only 1 of 4 hunters in the hut to knock over a great size hind... I cant argue with the guy.... But as Im a big girls blouse I will stick to my boots thanks.
