Thread: FREEZER IS EMPTY.

Our freezer is empty,cleaned out now.My wife has been moaning about buying meat in the last week.I have no trouble filling up the 95 liter fuel tank to go hunting now.Just gota get the weather right now.Mid week preferably.

Yep.... I know the feeling.

Not quite empty yet but getting close and none of our stock is yet ready to fill it..

we nearly have enough room........

I was in a pretty similar spot last week, missed a hind last weekend that got me a bit down in the dumps and still without meat. With the weather looking pretty average for this weekend i made a plan to head up river to a spot thats given up the goods many times over, got up there way too late, wind was swirling, and a group of deer were onto me well before i was onto them. Bugger. Carried on up stream to another face i like to wait on, decided id give it an hour, 20mins later a stag is spotted bolting across the face through the scrub after presumably winding me, got a quick range on him, 210m, no time to consult strelok, gave him 2MOA of dial on the vx5, as he stopped, quarting away i sent a 162amax his way, the fiesty little redhead did its job perfectly, in the crease, stag dropped on the spot, rolled half way to the river and eased up in a flax bush. After a late start and poor winds i was pretty happy to be carting out a tonne of meat, the animals are really starting to put on good condition too in the lower country where the spring growth has shot away. Get amongst it!

Yeah mate, shes been a dry year for me as far as deer goes. only shot a few, i got a few days left then im out.
Need to try again, having pretty shit luck this year not seeing as many deer

Sorry, but I can't resist. "We dont need farms and You don't need to hunt, there's plenty of food in the supermarkets"

I looked at a couple of packets of meat the wife brought 2 days ago.$32-$36 /kg. i need to get a deer soon=20kgs of real meat would taste nice.
