    Not quite a fly but a rat though the eye - CCI subs - couldn't remember if it was the left or right one you were supposed to aim for

    Nice little shoot in north Canterbury tonight. 46 bunnies and hares, and off home by 9.30. Always fun...

    I got another couple of hours of trigger time in yest arvo 'stinging' rabbits with the 17 Hornet.

    Got a bit more footage, got quite a few doubles where the dopey buggers just sat there as their mate hit the deck right beside them.

    Spent 3 days in the hill above Napier and managed 250 rabbits between two of us. Numbers well down on previous hunts. No young rabbits around. Looks like they have put reproduction on hold for some reason?
    Managed to pick up two hinds and a yearling to replenish the COVID-19 lock down stores depletion.

    Walk on a gloomy Sunday Arvo in fading light, by Central Otago standards the Rabbit numbers seem very low. What are about are big and in excellent condition.

    Today I managed my most satisfying shot yet and new PB with the 22-250, first kill "dialling" using my on load. Climbed up on the roof of the old cow shed and ranged it at 353m. Estimated wind at 8kph and dialled it in. All of this is new to me, probably more of a fluke than anything but I will take it none the less.

    Today I had some help from this magnificent hound, a 3yr old bitch who found very well, and did her level best to drag them downhill to the bike & trailer. Love this dog. Pedigree Labrador and Great Dane cross, an accident, but a bloody good one.

    I’ll have to get a side on photo and a video of her running for you to really see the Dane.

    Got in 3/4 hr ago. Shot seven turkeys. My apprentice( one of my boys) gutted five of them. I chopped wings n heads off then stacked them in freezer. He did well.

    What little pesties did you bowl over today?

    Did a takedown on some turkeys again tonight. 10 in total. This was the first lot. Apprentice didn’t do too bad a job gutting them....

    Pheasant shoot a few days back - fired three shots for two pheasants and a wild cat. And a few days prior, after sighting and testing a load for my 308 (130gr speer HP), shot two magpies ranged at 180.

    Fun on the farm today. Daddy day care is definitely the best day care!
