Great work and loved the photos.

I recall a similar experience with deer taking the loss of a mate in their stride .. which really suprised me.
Laying in ambush at last light I saw three fallow...

Thanks for all the help guys...but I struck out again.
Followed your guidence and went to Argyle. Had two sessions ...1st in the early afternoon and one at dawn. Don't fret though, bigger men than...

Cheers fellas...I think I'll get myself a three day license and give it a go. I'm thankful that you've taken the trouble to point me in the right direction. :thumbsup:

Thanks Shearer I'll check that out.
Much appreciated mate.

Hi all
The Whanau and I are heading up St Arnaud for a few days starting this weekend. Its a family orientated holiday so the rifle will stay at home, but I thought I might try spinning for trout....

Nicely told yarn Jake, I really enjoyed the tale. That was an impressively efficient meat harvest....Well done team!

Great work, getting up before midnight shows real dedication to the cause...and is well beyond an 'early' start.
Really enjoyed your telling of the yarn too.

Thanks all.

Hillbilly ...I do have a photo but I really struggle with technology and tasks such as posting a pic on here. Youve probably heard of the term information superhighway to discibe the...

Halloween had just passed and the swarms of miniature ghosts and witches had released their terrible grip on Christchurch for another year. Before the trick or treaters took over Halloween it was a...

Nicely told yarn Rumpy. Really enjoyed it, no venison at the end ( like with most of mine) but a very productive trip with a wallow and feed areas sussed out. Nice work.
Like you and many others I'm...

That's an honest and very relatable write up- brilliantly told. I'm sure most if not all of us have wounded animals and felt the guilt and anxiety you describe until we managed to put the deed right....

I've read and enjoyed Ken Tustin's 'A wild moose chase'. It convinced me that there is [or was then] a small surviving population -how long they will remain sustainable is questionable.

I don't...

Jeeze you're a helpful lot of buggers

Many thanks all:)

Hey thanks guys:thumbsup:
Which Challenge was it that charged for the 4kg Rupert?
I'll try googling that refilling tube MH...any idea where your friend got it?

Hi Guys n Gals
Santa brought me a two burner camp stove for Christmas. I've been around a couple of my local petrol stations trying to get the 4 kg bottle filled but they only do the 9kg swapa...

What a great trip and with some very skilled story telling.
Top notch Strummer.
That grass looks like the flush has progressed heaps since I was in the hills a month back.

What a brilliant education -many, many thanks, for taking the time to compile and post it.
Your presentation of the topic is fantastic -cheers:pacman:

Cheers all'

Yeah Mangle- I still like the song and although obviously written about Australia it seemed to fit well with my summer time hunts up this river valley.

"You walk alone, like a...

Thanks guys -it was one of the rare [for me] hunts that it all just went like clockwork. It was a shame that Lance had to bail from the trip cos likely as not when I do get to take him out we won't...

I had negotiated a long weekend away with workplace and my domestic overseer and the weather forecast was fantastic. Running up to the weekend a non-hunting friend, Lance, had asked if he could tag...

PDC Rumpy -Pretty Damn Cool
Nice pictures too, loved the falcon and the reflecting lake.:thumbsup:

Fantastic beast, Mooseman just awesome.

Great yarn there, 300.
And a really nice move arranging that veni sale to raise money for charity :thumbsup:

I've ever set foot in the area, but loved the pic's- you have a good eye with the camera.
Cheers to you and all those who are helping maintain/restore some of our neglected huts:thumbsup::thumbsup:

An absolute epic of a trip with all the results you could have hoped for. I bet Gareth was gutted to have missed out!
Nicely told too -a really enjoyable read.
