    Now is definitely the time to be heading out for the foolish teenagers! They will have just been booted out of home and will not be wise to the ways of the world.

    It takes 43 muscle's to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger pull.
    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!

    Hi Phillip...when you do get to ping one over, slash the gutbag before you leave the scene and take note of what they are foraging on...take note of all water holes and springs in the area as I believe we are in for a long dry summer and water is already getting short in the Kaimais and springs and wet areas are where they will be at least once a day. I live on the other side of the Kaimais and further north too where you hunted and our streams are running low already. There are a good number of deer in the Kaimais from reports I have had. I believe there were a lot less hunters in the Kaimais during the last roar than previous ones...for whatever reason. I know of a couple of young guys who are putting in the effort and going further back than most and are getting a good number of animals for their trouble.
    Which is worse, ignorance or apathy...I don't know and don't care.
