Thread: Why we hunt.

I'd like to take a bit out of Ryan's post,the bit about the stress during the week, I have that as well and sometimes on the weekend just can't be bothered, to mentally tired.
But sometimes you can, and when you do, when the effort is made it really worth it
Sitting looking on one side of a gorge looking out over to the other side, nobody about but the hound, he /she senses the mood and sits beside you. The nose goes onto your knee, you put your arm around his neck.
It's quiet, except for the buzz, there's always the buzz, or there should be, deathly quiet is no good.

I had a day last Monday where I looked and looked for something to shoot, it was a beautiful day, didn't see a damn thing was shootable [ bird shooting] but the hound really tried
The walk was great, and the WHP actually lay down in the back of the ute on the way home and that that means he's had a damn good day.
Me I slept the sleep of the just which too often these days doesn't happen.

Damn good post Brads, it needed thought to respond to.
