    That bike is just made for that country. If you were finding the going a bit difficult, a couple of easy things to make it a tad easier to control: lube the clutch cable regularly, and drop the...

    Well actually, a very kind forum member Philipo gave me a Bushnell Elite 3500 4 - 12 x 40, which he said I was to use, and not sell. Of course haha! I was going to save this scope for a small...

    Mate, I relate a lot to your story. Always been an outdoors person but nobody in my immediate family is a hunter. My first deer was also a Fallow spiker in Mackenzie. Thank you for sharing...
