    The fucking roar hasn't started yet so I doubt it.

    I just keep gathering meat. The heads I shoot are more coincidences than any result of planning, apart from the odd one I see in the velvet and then go and look for when they hard.

    But good luck to you bone hunters. Have a great and safe roar.

    Man the stags are going off at my place this morning. If it was the bush instead of the farm I would be as excited as a kid at Christmas.
    It takes 43 muscle's to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger pull.
    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!
    Rule 1: Treat every firearm as loaded
    Rule 2: Always point firearms in a safe direction
    Rule 3: Load a firearm only when ready to fire
    Rule 4: Identify your target beyond all doubt
    Rule 5: Check your firing zone
    Rule 6: Store firearms and ammunition safely
    Rule 7: Avoid alcohol and drugs when handling firearms

    Excellent Toby. This time two weeks from now I will be listening for the sound of stags from dawn to dusk and doing my best to rark them up.

    Went to go on a hunt this morning but my engine light came on 100 metres down the road! I drive a 2008 Ford Ranger so had no clue about diagnosing the problem myself and considering I was going to be down a 30km long gravel road decided to turn around. Couldn't get hold of a Ford service person till 9am. Quick run through on the computer testing thingee and he says I'd have been sweet to carry on, it was simply a sensor out of whack. Needed to know that at 5am this morning! Now I'm going stir crazy at home!!!!

    New vehicles eh.
    I'm drawn to the mountains and the bush, it's where life is clear, where the world makes the most sense.

    I know there is a song with this line in it but
    I'm all packed and I'm ready to go. I can hear the (delete motorcycles and insert 12 point stags) roar
    Now which band was that?
