    More action

    It's a great time of the year to be out and about and there seems to be plenty of animals around.

    I've been after some pesky pigs lately and managed to get this guy just on dusk tonight.

    Prior to that I'd been watching a nice stag that I've seen a few times and will let a mate shoot, later this week.

    I reckon he's a 13 and he's a crafty old bugger, only turns up just as it's getting dark, other younger stags are out earlier...

    I've also knocked up a video of some photos and videos that I've collected recently.

    Better than watching TV I reckon.

    The stags a great example of a Remutaka head, I had him lined up at 350 yards; but remembered that I’d told a mate that he could shoot it! 😀

    Yeah 325 grains of lead hits pretty hard, I was in two minds about posting the picture.

    Haha. Our cat scratched it when she was around six months old. Two operations and $2,500 later she had one eye. Doesn’t seem to affect her.

    Your not wrong about plenty of animals around. Local hunting has never been so good. I have had to resort to throwing rocks at the reds as I don't have enough chest freezers to keep shooting them.
    Never argue with stupid people, they will drag you down to their level and then beat you with experience.

    😆 the dig must think I’m crazy, walking past deer. It’s a country wide issue, numbers are too high in some places; I’ve seen some skinny deer!
