Thread: Time Frame

Never stopped learning.

Effort equals success.

Hunt with those better than you, stay quiet, absorb their skills by observation, get confident in the bush with off track navigation, get to know your weapon like the back of your hand, start small and build up (rabbits first, aim higher later) ...the rest will fall into place.

Enjoy everyday, even if you get nothing.

Best of luck

I got very lucky and got a deer with my first overnight trip with my centerfire. On DoC land. Saw about 4, shot one.

I am still a complete novice and can't claim to have learned much at all. I can say though that I spent a lot of time looking at maps and google earth to find what I thought might be likely spots.

In subsequent unsuccessful trips i've learned to stay away from hunting areas that also have popular hiking tracks. Or even tracks that aren't that popular. So basically anywhere easily accessible or that's well maintained = bad.
