Thread: 2011 - A Year Of Hunting

June - In June I was kept very busy with my new hunting mate, a GWP named SKY



July - During one very frosty morning in July, I was unlucky enough to pull up at a car park and find the number plate NIMROD glowing from my head lamp
Things soon looked up though when I tipped over a hind that was trying to catch some sun on a very small clearing



August, September, October - Busy months for me, I managed to get onto a few animals but never quite managed a connection
Late September and October saw me put down the rifle and pick up the fly rod for a change of pace for a while



November - In November i chucked away the fly rod and picked up the rifle again to make sure the Xmas venison supply would be topped up
The bald patches are where I grabbed x2 handfuls of hair to see if she was moulting



December - In December I went for a walk with forum member Mossie and we managed to get him his 1st deer with his new rifle. See his post under the 'Shooting' section. Also it was time for my GWP to earn her own bones by accompanying me into the hills
We still have a bit of work to do in that department...
