Europe trip

Hi Guys,
just got back from a 90 day trip from Hungary, visiting family and friends. Did a few days of fishing with my brother, chased pigs with an old friend from gamekeeper school and my lovely wife sponsored a roe buck hunt . Had real good time and seen plenty of animals, was a bit strange to be the client for once on a guided hunt. Took us quite a few days to catch what I was after but on the end the I am happy with what I came away with.
All up 2 bucks shot and 1 missed by a meter (used the wrong dot in scope). Shot a pig, didn't have a chance to catch another. My mate got himself a fox and a pig. Had bad luck catching up with the jackals but hey have to leave something for the next trip.
Writing a short article about this trip atm, once it's out will do a full write up.

Cheers
BF

Great images and looking forward to hearing a more detailed account of the trip

Made it home safe :D Attachment 73523

Awesome pics there. Great display of nz hunting in hungry of all places!

Looks as if you had a great time, Well Done looking forward to the full report.

Wicked man! Would love to hunt roe buck at some point.

PM me @stug I can set that up for you here in Berkshire UK

@Sideshow that would be fantastic, problem is I keep spending my money on new rifles and cant save enough for trips overseas. One day when I am old and crusty I might be able to push my zimmer frame around a field and take a nice old buck.:thumbsup:

Fantastic trip.

Yep it's a bit like Zimmer frame territory.:thumbsup: don't leave it to late though I'm planing on using my Zimmer frame at home in NZ not in the UK:x_x:

Combine it with a business trip. The tactical synthetic thing started to gain some more traction at home (not sure about other countries) more and more people lugging around T3-s with heavy factory stocks :D

Great photos and fantastic trip. Where is the hunting museum? My 1st time in Budapest it was in Vajdahunyad Castle with the agriculture and fishing museums. Some bloody good boars in there!

Awesome @Boar Freak cant believe they have a NZ section in their Hunting museum....mental...

It's in Keszthely @Daithi, around 190K south west from Budapest.

Yeah we used to have some mean driven hunts at home. Bit of a mixed gene in our boars most of them was lacking girth in the teeth department.
(The tags been put in to ID the shooter, they are proper wild boars)

They grew big on all the leftover food from the pheasant rearing. Used to release 16,000 every year.

They have heads and taxidermy from all over the planet @Scouser. They came mainly from private collections. For 8 NZD pp its a well worth having a look around in there.
