Sounds about right to me mate. I always like a slightly quartering away shot myself also.

cheers.

Ive been glassing lots and lots lately, planning to put in some solid time stalking over the next few weeks.

[Stickbow Hunter]

All the best with it mate. Don't forget to get some photos.

Will do Jeff,

I went out the other day, usuall story, goats on the far side of a massive valley, only saw them on the road home.

I did put a feral sheep out of its misery, first trad kill for me also.

thanks for your help along the way, its been invaluable as has been the forum

cheers

Congrats on the sheep mate. As you probably saw, I got one last hunt also. If yours was in the same state as the one I got you certainly did do it a favour. I look forward to hearing of your first goat taken with your Trad gear. If you keep trying you will eventually succeed.

cheers Jeff, it wasnt in great shape. there was still no real joy in it.

looking back, Ive enjoyed the hunts when I stalked in close to goats the best. I wont go into the bush without my bow, but it doesnt bother me if i dont nock an arrow.
