Gidget & Griffo go for some Practice

Well what can I say. Griffo was home from whatever country he lives in these days. We did a bit of catching up yesterday & he was keen to hit the target to site in his newly acquired Left handed elite. So we teed up for Wednesday arvo, I picked him up after work & hit the target, I flung a c...

Early morning walk

We had not long rounded the corner of the block of cane that borders the section of bush near the back of t...

Re: A couple of firsts while Hunting in Mitchell

Stickbow----> My walk about lens is the canon efs 17-85mm (which the sunrise was shot with). It's a top range of zoom on the crop sensor, if I could buy a L range lens in that zoom it would be here yesterday. The 75-300 Di-optics lens is great for hunting as it is so compact for a long zoom lens. Sh...
