Thread: Hello, and any tips to gain bush confidence?

Hey friends, been reading for a while and thought I'd sign up to be part of the discussion.

I have been shooting a bow for about 10 months now and have been on 3 unsuccessful hunts. Seen a bunch of sign, seen zero animals (probably too loud, or follow the wind like a sail). All good though, no rush, just happy to be outdoors.

I know I might catch some shit for this because there must be endless amounts of bushmen here but I need tips on gaining confidence for heading off track and into deep bush.

I go by myself and am learning by myself which makes me a bit more cautious about not fucking up and getting stuck or hurt or cold.

Any tips? serious answers would be welcome but some good old fashioned hazing is sweet too.

Thanks
