Thanks Jeff The trip was good as they are always into that country but we did face some radically changed landscape up there after the big cyclone went through , there was water all over the place and trees smashed down all over , game was more widely dispersed that the year prior but plentiful as a...

Nice shooting Mick No matter what we get to hunt or where the old Rabbit is still a great target , a ton of fun and an under rated table animal by a mile , My Mum used to dice them up and cook them in Apricot Nectar very slowly like a braise , and well its as good as the best food you can find in my...

Fantastic work They are by far and a way the hardest of the deer to get an arrow into particularly out of slower traditional equipment , but a constant drip will wear away stones , congratulations on your persiverence and a well earned trophy.

Nice looking camp , nice looking country , very nice looking Rub tree , it all looks ( very nice ) I wonder how many good stags are standing in that shot of the hills , just makes you want to run out and check every gully. Samba country is fantastic , thick heavy cover rolling hills close shots its ...

Of old deer and arrows
I can think back to when I was in my early teenage years; I would stand in the news agency and look at the pictures of hunters chasing deer all over Australia, imagining what it must be like to stalk Red stags, marveling at the beauty of Chital deer. In a locker at my house there is a stack of magaz...

Bartos , Mate Im not sure , I have heard the Americans put salt and suplemet licks out for deer around tree stands , but I have never tried it my self. They should be very near to rubbing out by now if they havent started at this time of year the best advice I can give you is to find the Food and th...

I know what you mean Mick the peak can get in the way thats for sure , I was wearing the Leafy face mask for the shot on this girl , taking it off for the photo , but I can shoot with a cap I just bump the peak up a bit so I dont pick it up in my vision when I draw. On this hunt I was using Beman IC...

Robertson on a clear bright morning
Was up well before the sun this morning and wading through the knee high Buffle grass Soaking Wet with dew. I waited by a jump in a fence that has been getting a lot of traffic through it and shivered anxious for the sun to arrive, 10 minutes after sun up I could see the deer making their way in tow...

What a belter of a fallow Jeff Im sure he is pleased with that , he looks to be a big boddied fellow to boot , the huntsman bows are great to shoot and have accounted for many species around the world now. And 15m what a great ambush , he would not have stood a chance at that range. Really well done...

I did the other night , nothing as fancy as a deer but I did get a big old feral cat in the ear from 20 or so metres (after missing him clean at 8 :oops: ) That is a beautiful bow I think I will shoot it at Gladstone this year , I would like to take a deer with her this year and will try in my next ...

Its a little harder to pick a spot on these Guys
Hey Guys I had a great hunt last night and had covered a fair bit of ground when I noticed this Doe and three of her freinds feeding towards me from a distance , I was able to move around in front behind some good cover and wait until they fed closer , it took the better part of an hour for them to ...

Guys had a great hunt during the week this week and was able to run one of Al Kidners Timber arrows through this neat little fella at 12m , he only made 20m and dropped in Sight.

Good to read all these and think back , very observant you guys are as well, I think I was 10-11 when the penny dropped that I could shoot better right handed , the little willow bow was an either / or option left or right handed , in truth its a fine line for me on eye dominance but its my right by...

Do you guys know anything about Grass Types
Was having an argument with a mate today about my lawn , He said it may be Italian Rye Grass or maybe even Couch Grass at the outside he thought it could be Fescue , But I stuck to my Guns its definitely Buffalo !!!!
