    Misery one week, Hopeless the next.

    Spent another couple of nights in the Nelson lakes area and went for a bit of a wander with the rifle. Some outstanding country and a few animals about.

    9" so not a world beater but I bought the head/headskin out as a mate shot a beauty (10 1/4") about 6 week ago and wanted a summer head skin.
