    4 weeks

    Im pretty lucky to work 28 days on and 28 off.
    Although I miss out on a few things, the time off makes up for it. Just need to use it better then what I perhaps do. So this time I made a real effort to get out there and into the bush! And what a break it was!

    Just a few photos from my last break at home.

    My 6 pointer on a trip with Killwell.


    http://




    Killwells 9 pointer!



    My Spiker....Kilwell needs camera Practice



    First pig! Stalked in after hearing him eating/chomping from a wee way away. Was good on the bbq!
    Kimber .308 is my new toy, and I love it!



    Pig and me....Im on the right!!



    Bro in laws monster hind!!



    She had some fecked up hoofs on both front legs!!



    Me and the deer from a meat hunt. Bro in law shot the bambis, earning the name "bambi slammer" for the weekend hahaha.



    Newbies tent! Should have heard the yelp when he saw the head in there also hahaha

    That is brilliant WW.
    It takes 43 muscle's to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger pull.
    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
