    The deer running into your tent is a classic 308. Pity it didn't get tangled up in it or you might have come home with a few back steaks. No good about your foot but, should have had a free soak in the hot pools down by the river on spa road.

    was a bit of a prick trying to find my headlamp then fumble around trying to find the zipper on the bug screen then put the poles back up so I could get out of the bloody thing to peg the guy rope back down, as for snare traps no bloody way I will probably catch myself up in them while taking the dozy wander to empty the bladder during the night.

    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!
    Rule 1: Treat every firearm as loaded
    Rule 2: Always point firearms in a safe direction
    Rule 3: Load a firearm only when ready to fire
    Rule 4: Identify your target beyond all doubt
    Rule 5: Check your firing zone
    Rule 6: Store firearms and ammunition safely
    Rule 7: Avoid alcohol and drugs when handling firearms

    At least you finally got there,, to have a deer run into your tent is classic, I've had wild pigs run through the camp site at times in the middle of the night and up Kiko rd a couple of Sika run past the bivi,,
    good to get out in the middle of winter, not every one takes on the conditions you can get.
    Good on yah

    Yeah mate I enjoyed the trip first chance I got to give the wagon a good run since it got the new head put on it only thing I need to do is replace the diesel filter as it lost power for a few seconds then would come right so must have been a bit of shit coming through from the filter. My son will be coming up on the 7th of next month so won't be doing another trip out to Clements till after the 19th of next month when my son heads back down to Blenheim. But probably wont stay at clements clearing again next round the one bit of bush I wanted to hunt behind the campsite the silence was destroyed by a radio being blasted by some forestry workers planting new pine trees in the cut over on the DoC boundary so will either stay at cream hut campsite, Te Iringa or try and get to Army road. I am going to be trying to get out one or two weekends a month not really worried if no one joins me for a hunt it is not so bad being a novice and going out on your own as it proves you are willing to work your arse off to get a deer and learn from your own mistakes as long as you have a compass, GPS and appropriate clothing to suit the conditions and use your brain then there should not be any problems

    I need some info hunter308,...what's the condition of the road?...is there cellphone coverage?...are there campsites pretty much anywhere?...access to water, or did you take your own?...was there much vehicle activity as in drive by hunting during the day and spotlighting at night?
    Which is worse, ignorance or apathy...I don't know and don't care.
