When I got back to the house around midnight I was buggered and happy as, really chuffed. It's something that we sometimes forget as older blokes with more "tails on our belts", that we must work hard to maintain the enjoyment of a good hunt, and the memory of it mustn't be lost in amidst all the crap of life. You young fellas have a massive advantage in that you are able to record everything digitally - use it wisely and back it up! I lost a lot of the celluloid photos of my early hunting days, mid-80s to late-90s, in a burglary. I was completely torn up about that.

Cheers brother appreciate the comment. I would enjoy reading another magazine read up of yours of this hunt you mentioned sounds wicked shot bro
