Thread: 2 STAGS IN ONE WEEK

Firstly the difference between a miss and a hit/gut shot /shoot it in the back leg (like your first video) is that most hunters edit that stuff out and dont show it. Because of the grief you get. I can guarantee if these guys had gut shot it or shot it in the leg (like you in your first vid) they would not have shown it. Like others have said we have all done it, even me ....... wow yes the best hunter on the forum by far as you have previously posted.

Secondly you are shooting a great calibre for long range but lack any decent optic for shooting in my opinion past 300m, instead you opt for a lead in the air is gd attitude. You also lack the ability based on the set up you have, clearly with 4 shots (3 miss 1 hit) at 475m. These guys dont display that or they would have all fired shots like WW3, sure its all down to the $$$ and being able to afford it, these guys have all spent massive amounts of dollars to ensure they have the best opportunity of a 1 shot kill. Yes he missed but as stated the guy had a feeling they were going to run so took a shot, How do we know it wasnt at head or neck or even chest and by the time brain says pull trigger the deer can have moved far enough for a hit. You have to have the right gear for the job, bit like racing a mini in a formula 1 race and hoping to win.

Thirdly you showed in one of your first videos taking a shot at some reasonable distance in massive wind and missing at least one or two times before you shot the poor stag in the back leg(again it could have been edited out like most others including me would have) secondly when you shot this last stag you missed 3 times before your fourth one made a "Clean Kill"

See this forum is all about supporting each other and helping each other, thats how the majority of us have improved, the difference between the bulk of them and you (and some others) as stated by others is you are arogant and cant handle the feedback given by experienced people on here, and yes a lot of them are way better and more experienced than me. You either need to pull ya head out of your arse, smell the roses, think about what you are posting, take the feedback on board, consider how some of us will react and move on or sign off and go somewhere else.

on another note
Keeping things secret about where all these dead birds are because you think someone may find your hunting paradise.....which is now poisoned is just stupid. It helps no one and makes you look like a chump. Example. I came accross a dead deer after a 1080 drop that had deer repellant on it, the area was the Haurangi's Good luck finding where it is when its 10,000 plus hectares. see the difference between my statement and how you reacted on another thread.

There are plenty of guys on here that are happy to help you on your journey, including me but you need to be open to it.

Regards and having a great day....

Hamish "The best hunter on the forum"

Yeah Hamish thanks for spelling it out for me I do get it now. I was thinking all this time I was the only one who was human on this forum as all you guys were doing one shot clean kills and I couldn't figure out how you were all doing it however now you have admitted you miss and you have wounded animals it all makes sense. I'm sorry for posting honest stories that's just what I thought everyone did here but as someone has quite rightly pointed out some animal activist could read it and take offence something I didn't think about. You do however realize Hamish that I will have to take back the bit about you being the best hunter on this forum in light of your latest confession. I have said numerous times before that I am keen to learn and some guys on here have helped me already to which I am grateful. Thanks again for clearing it up Hamish and I will be careful what I post in future.
