First Hare

My recent trip to Victoria I managed my first Hare at 4m with my new takedown longbow. Being from Western Australia where there are no Hares its a big deal for me. I have been slowly getting all my ABA game species badges and now only have Deer left. Although there is 6 deer species (all east coast as well) I'll be happy with just one.

I had two stalks on Sambar hinds but It wasn't to be. I really enjoyed the Victorian Hunting and will be back next year.
Cheers Muz

Muz congratulations on both mate, I'm still to get a hare. Good to see the new longbow being used as well.
Looks like your handling the cold weather really well mate?

Cheers Fellas, It was a weeee bit fresher than I'm used to. The sun only appeared on day 8, the beanies definitely got a good work out.

Great Effort Muz those big rabbits are a challenge with trad gear for sure.
The east coast is certainly spoiled for species choice but I thought you were based in the SW of WA, you should be used to the cold.

My Hare that I shot with a bow I made now hangs proudly behind my bar. Very happy with the quality of work. A great reminder of my first Victorian hunt.
