    We had actually set out to target deer as mentioned earlier we had seen a few up there a couple weeks earlier.
    I never target pigs as I think the guys with dogs have a much better chance of success, also even though we knew there would likely be pigs up there my mate who has been on this block for a few years had never seen one.
    We got to our first ridge line at about 3pm probably to early for deer to be out feeding but as no one had been up on the block for a week we decided it was worth sitting there for a glass.
    Nearly an hour goes by and nothing other than a couple goats which weren't worth the effort as it would have been a huge mission to get them where they were.
    The valley we were glassing was kind of an "L" shape and we couldn't see one end so we decided we were going to head up to where we had seen a few deer before as we wanted to be there when the deer started to feed.
    As we rounded the corner of the valley we decided to stop for a quick 10min glass of the bit of the "L" we couldn't see from our first possie.
