Nice still Anzac day in Central, afternoon on the hill with oldest boy home from uni.
37 shot and I picked up two cats. First black one I have got, the 17 HMR sure has a taste for Moggy's, not to shabby on the Rabbits either.

@flybown nice goat mate! Where in the country roughly ?please,

First time out for the young fella for a couple of months.

Naughty wind across the valley meant a 14 inch hold for wind at 160 yds.

He's been practising his trigger pull.

That’s not too shabby. Getting hard to get goats with horns that size theses days.

They get a fair bit bigger than this... But I agree it is hard to get onto them this sized in the easy to access areas.

Big billies in the Wanganui catchment are quite common, its not that the numbers are low, they are just bloody hard to access. When we go and clear out mobs around private land I very rarely see large Billy heads like this. The really large ones are almost always solitary animals or running with just one or two other old males, that often also with large heads. And of course in hard to access areas. that’s been my experience the past few years.

Fun afternoon with the kids and a mate and his two kids on a farm 15 mins from home. Bit of target shooting first, then a wander to see what we could find to hunt.

The 6 of us ended up putting a stalk on a mob of turkeys to get close for the kids. Got Max (mates 8 yr old) onto his first game animal. He pulled off a great shot at 80 yards with my 223. He smoked it!

Kids all enjoyed it and liked having a closeup look at the birds.

I nailed 2 more and another couple at 270 yards. Loving the model 7 223.

Way too much noise from the 3 younger ones tho to see any deer tonight.

Did you breast them? I kind of feel a bit bummed that I didn't do the one I shot.

Nah these were big old birds, would have picked off the younger ones if we wanted to eat them.
