    Getting My S**T Together

    When for a hunt yesterday with no luck but decided with the weather even better today to have a look. The alarm is going off it's rocker again at 3 15am this morning and I'm thinking really. Drag my arse out of bed and get all my gear ready. Shaka turns up at 3 50 and off we go. Got to our spot to see a couple of deer right on first light we got a range on them but they melt back into the groom of the bush before we could fire a shot. A bit futher on we see another one on a rocky slip ranged it at 622yds. Let my 7-375 at it and now joined the 600 club. Bit of prime yearling for Christmas. All the practice at Gongs pays off.

    Also a plane vapour trail. Something a bit different.

    Talk to Kiwi Greg he has a short throat reamer for Tikkas. I use Bergers at mag length which are just off the lands.
