The FYM four ( + 1 ) hit the Rua's

So for this year the plan was set for the FYM crew to hit the northern Ruahine's for a week of abuse, bull shit & red slaying.

With a last minute line up change we saw four bright eyed and bushie tailed nob ends ( plus one slightly smeillier than normal pom ) meet up in a sheep paddock, unload & with'in a couple of mintues we were doing two trips head'in to the hut thanks to Hill Billy Choppers from Taihape :cool:

Philipo, Greendog, Bambie Slammer, MEB & Gretta " the deer dar" are in the hood, We chuck our endless amounts of "last a week" shit into our "6 bunk Ritz" scoff down some lunch and prepare for battle

Slammer & MEB go for a single man rekie, While Greendog, his spotty bitch and myself plan a trip up stream then decide to go up the gorge ( not very often do you find these waterways so low ) so we decide to make the most of it and work our way up, wearing our shitty sneakers & only getting my nads wet a " hand full" of times ;)

We come apon this mint slip

Attachment 8657

We watch it for a while & then decide to climb up it's edge & go over the ridge into the other catchment , while letting off a few "toots" following up the ridge we get a "hello" back from the other side of the slip, I call him over with my 10c piece of PVC pipe roaring stick and he takes the bait, Gretta decides to do the worlds smelliest dump and then have the wind blow it in our & old Mr Staggos face.

Did'nt seem to worry him to much as next thing GD looks down and see's the bugger about 30yd's from us, shit he had'nt slotted a round up the pipe, so by the time I saw Staggy he was on the retreat Awe "fuck ya mother" scamper scamper across the slip face & then we see him about 250yd's away ( I'd pre-ranged the slip face )
use a tree as a rest and blast the cunt with the Mk 5, down he goes and lands up against a tree :cool: but in a real steap arsed prick of a spot :XD:

A nice big Rua 9

Attachment 8658

We remove the head and let him "gently slide to the bottom of the slip" YEAH RIGHT !

Then with fading light we have to follow him down ( FYM it was quite steap ) get to the bottom do some cutt'in and decide to do the walk'n'carry back to the hut ( luckly we are such good boy scouts we were prepared ) so down the stream we go & finally make it back for dinner about 10:30

A good start to the trip :thumbsup:

With day 2 a right off weather wise, Day 3- Philipo & MEB decided to head up hill to the bush edge & the awesome world of "the tops", we have a good looksie around and come apon a bwety gully head, let off a couple of 10c PVC blows and FYM we get a responce ! Mint we plan an attack to move quickly down to a nice rocky roaring / shooting point and see what happens

Blow, blow, blow & he's giving the rasberry back, then I spot the fucker sticking his head out'a the shrubbery, a bit of fucking around entails while I get my bino's, range finder, rifle scope & brain to all work in cyncros, 380yd's bomfaa give it a 2nd & over it rolls into the sticks

Attachment 8659

Takes a while to get over there through all the shit & untold little shitty guts, MEB ( aka Martin the hairy pom ) tracks it down & puts in a finisher ( I lunged the poor bugger ) he ended up rolling about 10yd's to far and ended up upside-down in a real cunt of a spot

A nice old boy, pass his prime 10, but still man of the house :cool:

Attachment 8645

Martin carryed the head out over a two day transission

Attachment 8646

So "Priate Friday" comes and goes, We have a visitor for dinner on Saturday night. Rick from Wang'as had decided to walk in for a weekend hunt ( poor buggar did'nt know what he had walked into LOL ) Sunday come's & goes

Take the Edge for a marathon walk on Monday, coming back I put on my ele-muffs watch / listen to a few stags roaring in the arvo with'in easy shooting distance ( 450-650y ) on the other side of the gully / vally but friggen half a days walk to get to, so no point bombing the cunts so just enjoy watching and talking to them and the few bitche's they had in tow

Attachment 8647

As in life, you never know when you will see friggen deer & on my way back to the bush edge track I come over a ridge and all of a sudden 3 friggen hinds decide to go awol, I sholder the 11lb+ beast put a bead on the cunts sholder and friggen miss a 80-100y shot "WTF" LOL every ones done that more than once aye :XD:

Next moring is last meat Hunting day & MEB and myself head to our happy hunting grounds of the tops looking for a nice bit of skirt to take home, well fym we come across a real dizzy Doras and after a couple of comical shots I put her to bed

Attachment 8648

We hear a couple of shots ring out'a the vally below, G Dog & Slammer have bowled a nice big 8 " Mint"*

The Stoney Creek "Meat suit pack" worked a treat

Attachment 8649

A neat last day of hunting to a great trip with fucken good mates, FYM this is why we do what we do :thumbsup:

Cheers boys :cool:

Re- GD's 8 is the one on the right of the last pic. I did'nt bother bringing out the 9 I shot on the first day as I had to much other meat'n'shit to carry out down the gorge in the dark & did'nt get back to pick it up ( so it's still sitting on the river bank lol )

In reality, I shot more like 2.75 as MEB finished off the 2nd staggo :D and as in most hunting trips with mates " It's a team effort " pulling the trigger is just part of the equation, shit most of the works in getting to the buggers & cutting'n'carrying :cool:

A good trip, story spoiled it by referring to the deer as 'c**ts' throughout. So much for respecting game animals.

I dissagree.. Whenever i give a roar with no reply i always call them " C**ts" , When they reply they are "Beauitfull things"

Nice one Phillipo sounds like a great trip!

Yup good spotting o'd'l it's a MK5 ultralight in 308, a rifle, Ive always wanted was a Weatherby MK 5 & I must admit it is'nt shooting that great ( sorting that at the moment ) but it's a nice rifle to carry & the low bolt lift is mint :cool:

Steve'o shit sorry was ment to reply to this last night but got called away. The only reason I refer to em as C**ts was that I'd just spent a week in the hills with "the boys" so was still in the "on tour swearing mode" and also I was pretty pissed when I wrote the story, lol

I do have respect for the game I hunt ( ask anyone that hunts with me ) and as I stated in my yarn, I did'nt try shooting every thing I saw

I did hear a story of someone that shot 8-10 eight pointers on a recent roar trip, Why ?

Hahaha

PS- Also why I refered to MEB as the "smelly pom" was that on the trip down GD's dog spewed on him twice, poor old Martin, lol

Philipo, my mate has an ultra light in 308 too, he loves it. took him a while to sort a load for it too, he's using 130gn projectiles, mainly shoots sika with it.
