    Bloody well done Monk.
    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

    Did a Kaimai walk yesterday wet underfoot and constant showers through out the day. Hi temperatures and humidity no wonder no moans were heard too hot for stags during the day so its looking to be another typical Kaimai roar

    Went in the pissing rain yesterday around the the Nelson region. Nothing roaring, even thou i spooked a stag on a ridge as the bloody wind always kept blowing up my arse no matter which way i went. Spooked another animal later on. Last year on a big wallow got 5 different stags on game cam in the same wallow in the same week. This year it hasnt even been used. Found one wallow that had, prob by the stag i spooked but sign was disappointing and it wqas darn wet!!

    Just got back from a couple of days on my first ever roar hunt. Heard light moans at night and same the next morning. Managed to call one in and got a quick glimpse of him before he got into some think bush and never made another sound! Safe to say that one got away. Awesome hunt for my first roar, I am hooked and cant wait to get out again asap!!

    Nice temp drop here today. May mean a ramp up in activity. My couch has the odd moan of agony emitting from it ha ha
