That's unfortunate. Maybe check in with Rogee - he likes to get in there and show it on social media

There are still the occasional goat in the Southern Ruahines but I wouldn't be heading there for a goat hunt.

hotbarrels that looks like a serious 'outdoor fire'. Got some photos of the whole thing?

Yeah if you google quad sticks shooting you'll find the standard type used in the UK. Heaps of DIY ideas too. I've used them and they are incredibly stable and easy to use. They just don't seem so...

That looks awesome. I do it the cheats way with a bottle of beer, a bottle of fav quality bbq sauce, and onions. Shanks work great as they have a bit more connective tissue to break down so doesn't...

I did use a cheap non-digital meat thermometer I was given by the kids at Christmas to help. Oh and the meat was taken straight from the fridge, seared, then back into fridge to chill before wrapping...

I saw in a hunting mag a couple of years back a way of making meat from a stag shot in the roar more palatable by marinating in Coca Cola. Haven't tried it myself but they swore it worked to reduce...

Well done. That is a lovely looking knife. Enjoyed following your process (looks like you did a bit of homework there).

Here's an interesting take on ageing meat. I'm not sure if I saw this shared on here or somewhere else. Basically in this system they work towards a minimum of 40 degree day grades. if at 10C then...
