Thread: 2011 - A Year Of Hunting

January - January was a bastard. Due to work and other commitments I spent little time in the hills and my venison supply ran dry due to Xmas and summer evening bbq's.
When i finally got out toward the end of the month, i didn't think twice about tipping over this hybrid stag with huge non typical antlers



February - February had me poking around semi open fringe country I had not explored properly. While one weekend i did manage to find animals, wasp nests in my lookout spot gave me a hard time and forced me out with my tail between my legs



March - March was another busy month for me and left me with little chance of escape. An early roar meant the stags were hard to locate and even harder to close the gap. After a few failed efforts i ended up shooting a spiker to top up the meat supply and put some weight back on the shoulders again



April - April was a good month for hunting with the timing of fine weather in sync with the weekends



May - In May I took some time off from work and went out on a decent trip. Things started off slow and finished even slower with a boned out hind and yearling In my pack
