Kimberly Part 1

#1 Post by Slackshot » Sat Nov 10, 2012 8:02 pm

Where do i start :roll: well at the begining would be good :biggrin: i guess.Well you all know Greg and i are mates so i gave him my seat on the plane so he could look out the window and see what a great country we have passing by and by and by while Greg videoed anything that took his fancy.He was like a kid in a lolly shop.Michael my eldest boy met us at the airport and said we would be off the next day early as it takes about 5hrs to get to the homestead and another 1hr or so depending if we get bogged like last time to the campsite This is us at Willare road house on the way out Mick me and Greg

Greg was seriously crook after chasing that boar down in the heat not being used to those temps and was not right for most of the day.There was some dust that came up from the grass and it made your throat funny and i think it had something to do with it also, you can see in this photo he is not well

Awesome!
It's the great, big, broad land 'way up yonder,
It's the forests where silence has lease;
It's the beauty that thrills me with wonder,
It's the stillness that fills me with peace.

Hazard,,yep those are the two bows we made for the trip.Gregs turned out at around 55lbs and mine around 53lbs .We walked along and stump shot at any cow poo and green leaf that we would call ,i had some great shots and flogged Greg but when it came to bagging some pigs i could not shoot the broadside of a barn with a bucket of wheat and as i said in the previous post video to prove it :oops: :oops: .Notice the size of those pigs heads,man they are big.
Ahoy Jeff, i was pretty ok but old mate was a bit flushed :!: I never intenderd to wear shorts at all over there as those BIG brown snakes get the heart pumping and i was lolled into denial until we were walking through some longish grass and i looked down and seen a fresh skin at my feet and then a very large brown shape goin down a large crack,,,,but a did see a large black head attached to it before it disappeared PHEW black headed python...MEDIC.calm down esky not far to go

They look like they are an awesome bit of kit, nothing better than taking game with all your own home made gear! I gotta do that one day :roll:

Top Stuff keep it coming.

aha the story unfolds so far accurate to a degree.I was musing over the fact that Gaz bought two "gay stubbie coolers" and thought that they were 'nice" :surprised: until we pointed out the obvious!! (to us) and the reason that he was taking the photos,,... obvious also! :roll: and yes I must admit that he hit every piece of cow dung and inanimate object he aimed at, now I'm not saying that he couldnt hit a pig with a handful of rice.He just chose not to, , ,I think? :oops: hehehehe! any way he has a chance to redeem himself in two weeks when we head out west for a bit of r an r at our favourite camp spot.

Some great boars there Gary, and on home brew tackle too. It just doesn't get any better than that, well done.

Cheers..... Rod
