    A North Islander meets some West Coast Puff Daddys.

    Our yearly thar trip got off to a slow start due to weather and resulted in far too much whiskey being drunk while waiting for a weather window at a good mates place in Whataroa. We had 2 days of awesome hospitality by Stagasorous before we got the call to head down for the flight in.
    We arrived early Monday to our camp covered in snow and had a heap more coming. It was to be a cold few days scrub.
    In the 3 days hunting, we seen far too many thar Several bulls competing over fewer nannies at one time. They were fighting and brooming which in my opinion does not help trophy potential. KiwiJames managed to get 2 good bulls with one old fella that was 13 yrs old. My other cobber got a nice 13 and a bit inch bull.
    I only scared the shit out of an 820yrd rock for a laugh. I only seen one bull that I would have taken but it was inaccessable. The focus was to find one for KJ and he did well for his first go.
    Not much of a report but I am still thawing out and have to get KiwiJames back to CHCH for his flight home to some cushy NI hunting.
