Well me an mr bob went for a little wander yestaday.
Getting up the the 1st creek an we done the branch off after much deciding who was going where an neither of us wanted to pick what way, i decided id go the steeper route but was going to be shorter, we found a rock that we put a little rock on an said if it wasnt there when who ever had got back 1st then we had gone up creek to find each other.
After finding 3 deer carcasses that had been back steaked an back legged, witch i thought was abit lazy as was maybe Just over 2km to truck but each to there own, they werent all that old either but still had a 'pong'.
I busted up my creek for 30min or so than was ready for a nibble parked up with good view of alot of slips an the head of my creek, i had spotted 2 small chams then another 2 popped out not far from them, nothing realy worth popping at, them 2 feed into view up the head after a had a moment dropping shit, i sat the an had a good look an decide the bigger one up the back was a nanny an mid sized youngin
After more looking an thinking it dont look to bad, then was the next though weather to get closer or go from where i was???? was abit of hmmmmm for couple of minutes, decide if i got closer the angle would be getting steeper an steeper fast, So the plan was hatched to shoot from there, Got all set up put the brake on an what dont look cumfee but was mint apart from sitting in the creek getting wet nutsaks as it wasnt that warm to start with, range finder made it an 712m(788yds) got the phone out done the numbers set up an got the angle on 32 degrees up hit, no wind to speed of dialed up 7.5MOA got settle in, aimed centre shoulder an let the a-max fly with seen impact centre shoulder an mrs cham dropping instantly, cart wheeling down the hil i said you fucking beaulty
Then packed up my gear an heading up as getting closer an thinking holy shit this is steep fucking shit, i busted it straight up the face clinging on for life then got to the point there was no more up an i was stuck.....................standing there packing one for couple minutes thinking that the wife had been giving me the 'talk'...'again' about thinking of her an the boy before i do silly things I decided i aint going back down where i had just come up and was time to sidle, after good 30min of oh hell im broken if i slip from here.........
I got to a little cham track that was alot better having 4" track to wander around, finnaly got to where i had shot mrs cham well over a hour latter then had to find it where it had cart wheelled to, after 20min of search i found it buried in so logs an shit so dragged it out an done the deed, an then thought what was that...............there it was again! A stag up the back having a roar after lunch time WTF........ tryed to roar back but with no voice from chest infection a girly whine was all i could do, it didnt seem that intersted an was along way back adams way so i headed down a different way but was alot hair raising too............
Got back to the meat point when i may as wll shit myself to a 'OI' adam hed beat me back an had also seen 5 cham an got wisseled at by one for a while but couldnt find, after spewing because mr adam had seen a monster in the creek on the way back got a bead on him but was to fast for him an done the bolt.........Mr anrgy bob was peeking at this point
we had a yack an showned him mrs chamios witch was 9 3/8" even
Up to next creek we cranked on up hour an hlf to some waterfalls then time was getting on an would have taking time to get around an after seen sweet fuck all sign and just one stags prints, we flagged it was shit, headded back to truck an to the PUB!!!!!!!
