   I have carried the ARS P-18 folding saw for about 40 years. I think Siky saws are the next generation. The orange handled BAHCO is cheap and cheerful from Bunnings. Th longer blade has the...

   Micky Duck liked post by TeRei On thread : Rifle Cleaning Day Today

   There was a comment when Holden was culling in Hawkes Bay he was fastidious about cleanliness and made it known he did not appreciate his collegues who thought washing once every 2 weeks was ample.

   The two best times to hunt are when it is raining. And when it isn't.

   I personally love winter bush hunting or bush hunting in rain. Bush is always quiet and damp, usually less people, and the deer struggle in the wet and wind. I’ve found it especially good for chasing...

   Spent 46 years hunting so far. Sometimes as a team of two but still hunting separately for two or three days or so. Rest of time mostly hunt solo. Doesn’t matter if you’re hunting solo or as a team,...

    You shouldn't be taking any bigger risks with companions than you do solo. The fall etc will still kill or hurt you just the same. Have an epirb, spare clothes and a bivy bag with you in your day...

    There’s definitely positives for going solo - you can do everything on your schedule, and I think I get more animals by myself too. I guess it comes down to individual risk tolerance at the end of...

    I don't think the distance in should make a difference to how careful you are. I had an experience early on, falling hard against a tree in a deep little gully about 2.5 hours back from the car...

    To answer OP, no carry on business as usual. This is what a PLB is for. As with anything, any risk you take should be calculated. You only live once, don't live in regret for not having checked the...
