    Tahr hunting middle of March?

    Hi there, organised and went on a tahr hunt early June this year and are making it an annual trip with mates. Unfortunately one is inconsiderate and has knocked up the wife, baby due middle of April. Being a top bloke myself and really wanting to keep this an annual trip with the same mates, what is tahr hunting like middle of March? It would only be for next year just to keep everyone on the same trip nobody misses out. Thanks Jason

    Sounds like you need to find new mates.
    Ones more committed to the cause.
    How inconsiderate!

    Leave it until after the baby is born, April/May is much better. And by then your mate may have earned enough brownie points to have a week away from his wife and new baby.......maybe

    March is warmer. April May a bit colder with maybe a bit of early snow. Weather is still pretty settled. Few changes in their coat starting to lose that summer bleach but not much in it really and just a bit closer to the rut

    I'm drawn to the mountains and the bush, it's where life is clear, where the world makes the most sense.
