Thread: a question for the bush hobbits

Some really good advice here, but personally would like to reiterate, the single biggest thing you can do for your saftey these days is not carry a whole animal on your back

I’ve been lined up twice in my 8 years of hunting, thankfully never shot at.

Bone it out, break it down or at the minimum bring a white sheet and wrap the bastard.

I never shoot/hunt alone on principle, , and will always find the bro and pair up before walking a carcass back to camp.

Last roars end we came across another hunter in the who reckoned he had taken a couple of rounds from the adjacent face of the gut near Dorset, No exposed animal, just a skinned 10 pointer skull tied to his pack.

Scary shit to think that us, that bloke and however many others were all converged in pissing distance in one of the most remote areas of the park, and that someone was perepared to drop rounds 350m+ on some unidentified movement.


It was and it’s a reminder they are out there, and probably think they are the country’s greatest hunter and some of us have probably walked past, stayed in a hut with, or know one of those troglodytes
