    Not so good for dodgy knees when they are steep hills though. Didn't end up getting any goats either. Will still be there for next time though.
    Did hear a Kiwi on Saturday nights hunt which was cool.

    Yes it is alway cool to hear Kiwis. I often here them at night when hunting in my favorite spot.

    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!

    Haven't chucked anything hunting related up for a while, heres a 'pest' that I shot a few weeks back, compared to Moose and/or Wapiti I guess you could stretch it to the small game category.

    Should pick up the sausages, patties, salamis and mince any day now.
