Nibblet are you going hunting up there? Spook, Nibblet is a fit young buck so no need to extend the same generosity to him that you showed to me. Ha ha ha ha James that means I reckon you can walk up easily.

Quick update. Yesterday was the first outing for the year, Organised a trip with Rusky into the kaimai's, Starting a 5:45am we headed into a likely spot to start our hunt. Making our way through some nice bush but no luck there. Off to a few more places to try through out the day, But still nothing to be seen. We were able to find good sign all day tho. Wasn't until we were starting to make our way out when we spooked a hind and she wasn't stoping for a 2nd look ! It was an awesome day in the bush making it back to the car about 5:45pm, 12hr trip - longest day trip ive had yet. And I think Rusky has a secret love for supple jack :thumbsup: That stuff can be a real bitch to get through sometimes. Scenic pic :

Nice spot of bush BH. Yep thick Supple Jack is a prick of a stuff.
I think i used stronger words when being trapped like a fly in a web. Good long day walking and building up knowledge of the area which is always good!Quote:

I hope it is a young hind that he gets to "pop his cherry" on as a manky ol' stag would be no fun at all.Quote:

Bugger!
Yep Dundee bugger alright, Just like today too. Up at 4.30am, Headed to a different part of the kaimai where I havn't been yet. 20km hike, Pretty rugged where we ended up, Spooked 4, Got a look at one's arse as it gapped it. Heaps of sign, Be good for the roar there, To far for day trip's I feel.
Found a nice Water fall/Swimming hole just for @Rusky haha.

Short & Sweet. Well a good weekend away has been and gone.
I was lucky enough to be able to tag along on a trip to Taupo with a guy I no.
Headed down Saturday morning, Got to our camp site after lunch, Set up and then off for a arvo/evening hunt.
The bush was very scrubby and dry, And the hunting was eaither up hill, down hill or across, Not much flat area around.
Not long into it, Fresh sign was found and a Sika whistle was herd. Continuing on down a ridge to cross a stream, A small
spiker came into view, The guy I was hunting with was in lead so he got the shot, Bang flop. Yeah Ha !
I got to blood my knife and got a lesson in gutting a deer, Then got the job to carry it out :thumbsup:
Hunt 1 done. Had a feed, Talked shit, Few coffee's down then hit the hay.
Up around 6am, Had a brew and a feed, Decided on where to hunt then on our way ...
Hunt 2 consisted of a big walk, lot's of sign but no luck - Back to camp, pack up then headed home.
Was an excellant time away, I didnt get to fire a shot but learnt a heap, And i got some venison for my efforts ! Top stuff.
