    Tahr hunt

    Went for a wander in the weekend, made a video of the hunt. Fun times.

    Got a heap of photos, might add to this later.

    Got another tahr trip in the pipeline for the end of the month so looking forward to that.



    Cheers
    Josh

    Another great video mate! Thanks, this is the only kind of thing keeping me sane at the moment. Knee injuries suck!!

    Me 4. Any structural damage seems to have long-term, longlasting consequences. I get the miseries because doing the things I love most, end up hurting and the damage seems to compound. I hate my own fragility. But I suppose it's part of being more-or-less human, and we struggle on as best we can. Still love getting out in the bush and sneaking around in a limping but forward- moving fashion. A mate of a mate reckons he'll have me looking at some fallow in a few days. Looking forward to topping up the freezer.
    Best wishes to all the old and injured members. It's the videos and "reports by @JoshC and others members that keep me motivated and getting out whenever I can. So thank you guys & gals. Please don't stop doing what you're doing.

    @JoshC what's your biggest bull to date?
    That looked like difficult conditions to film in.

    @JoshC, when you guys are crossing the river, what are you wearing there, booties of some kind? Like dive boots?
