It was the backup in case I failed and the scrub bull took to us.

Is that Matt Kelman?

No

Sounds like a good place to Hunt.

Is it a paid hunt or do you just know the people who own the lease?

Not sure I knock over a Horse but I'd definitely get into them pigs.

Wish the Cocky was a rellie but sad to say no.
Yes it's a paid hunt, shoot as many animals as you want, horse's, pigs, dogs and donkey's are free. Scrub Bulls and Buffs not free.
It took a bit of courage to knock over my first Horse last year, even had a little tear in my eyes but after that first one it was OK cause you are actually doing the farmer a favour.

On one of the days we were there 3 of us got up early, before sunrise, must have travelled 50 to 80 kms looking for things to shoot, couldn't find anything so returned to camp for lunch. Over lunch all sorts of schemes were discussed on what to do and where to go etc, I mean she's big country. We load up the Cruiser and head out the main gate about 2ks and bugger me days a mob of horses not more than 100 yds of the main road mixed in with a bunch of cattle. We park up and two of us with rifles ( 2 x 300win mags) sneak up to the fence line, each of us in different shooting locations and let rip, no survivors of course except the cattle.

Sounds good.

Is there a cost to hunt on the place then an extra fee for the Bulls n Buffs?

There's a set fee with trophy fees on the Bulls & Buffs, all wild stuff. The farmer uses choppers to do his annual roundup plus they have armoured vechicles to capture the wild scrub bulls which he sells off to the works or export. I'm pretty sure they would easily capture a couple hundred scrub bulls a season.

You may think you have shot out one area one day only to return a few days later to see just as many animals. The amount of differing wildlife you see is incredible from crocs, snakes, bandicoots, dingo's, pigs, scrub bulls, donkeys, horse's, Buffs and birdlife.

I'm going to a Buff next year
