    My Roar Tararua Battle of the beast

    Tararua Battle of the beast


    The 5th of april had me fly camping on the side of a bush clad ridge that night had one stumble into camp bellowing .. exciting start boots on in the morning and back over the other side i went wandering roaring well until 10am one kept going so ventured the 700m down lots of contour lines alright had two goes approaching him steep as heck creek edge covered in ki ki gave up at 5:30 totally knackered back up the ridge i went thirsty, sweaty, Hangary (Hungry-Angry) 400m from the top i found a dirt scrap just been used stopped gave a couple off mellow roars crack-snap-twig 100m up ahead sneaked 30 m then the beast broke loose pulled him to a stop with a moan stopped in the perfect place crack and the open sighted 303 shooting 180gn flattened him...........was bloody stoked once in a lifetimehttps://youtu.be/tLuHj0z6394 .Pretty awesome to find that it has gone 232 douglas

    Cool.
    The range of what we think and do is limited by what we fail to notice. And because we fail to notice that we fail to notice, there is little we can do to change; until we notice how failing to notice shapes our thoughts and deeds

    Excellent ! In the UK they would probably say that load in yr 303 isn't deer legal due to velocity and energy.....pure phish....as yr big boy on the ground shows.....well done
