    Big win for the guiding operation!

    After lengthy negotiations with the property owner of one of Australia's biggest hunting properties, @HartHunter2 and I have been successful in getting a gig to guide on 115,000 acres of deer country with Reds, fallow, Rusa, Chital and the odd Sambar.
    We're kicking things off next year so hopefully have a lot of stories and pics to share on here.

    If it's not a first round hit you need to practice more

    Good shit Jack.
    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!
    Rule 1: Treat every firearm as loaded
    Rule 2: Always point firearms in a safe direction
    Rule 3: Load a firearm only when ready to fire
    Rule 4: Identify your target beyond all doubt
    Rule 5: Check your firing zone
    Rule 6: Store firearms and ammunition safely
    Rule 7: Avoid alcohol and drugs when handling firearms

    I would love to shoot a Chital. They were released in NZ once, but never got a foothold. For some reason I'm thinking it was in Dusky Sound?
    The only thing that puts me off is your terrible damned accents. Do you reckon you could tone them down long enough for me to get out the back of your block, shoot a stag, and then get back to a plane home?

    Good luck with your venture.
