Sunday morning was a sleep in, Up at 5:30am, Get out there, Had a good look around as I walked up, Headed in and found good sign, Stopped and kipped out for a half hour or so haha - So peacefull. Did some more walking around then headed home.

And here's another area I thought would be good to give a go sometime :



And today I took my daughter into the bush for a walk around All up a good weekend it was. Time for a beer.

Good stuff man I'll try and come for another walk before we go down for this trip at the end of Nov

Fixd Mate I went back to the same spot, It was so close, No more than 5m max. My mate that came for a walk couldn't believe how close we got.

Well it's been a while since my last post, Went for a few more hunt's before the end of last year. But nothing as yet.

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 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!

BushHunter is getting closer to his first deer from what I hear. This weekend he may pop his cherry if he doesn't go chasing waterfalls.

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.

We nearly convinced a young fulla on one of our social club trips he had to fuck his first one

I always thought that it was tradition to take a bite out of the heart when you.got ya first and while its still warm
