Nariel Station

#1 Post by blu-dog » Fri Oct 04, 2013 10:40 am

In August LB rod 55 and I escaped for a couple of days and headed out to Nariel Station - as I had won a hunt for 2 people for 3 days. It's a beautiful property and the owners are fantastic people, but you do have to work hard to find and get in close to any goats.

My only goat for the trip. Taken with my 70' 64@28 Gringa Longbow. Using Port Orford Cedar shafts, tipped with 160 grain STOS heads. 18m shot.

Good hunting and story and pics Paul, go the mighty Gringa. I have read about Nariel on the web and often wondered what it is like.

Cheers...... Rod
