Thread: Northern Territory Trip

Returned last week from my NT hunt. This year was spent on the adjoining cattle station, all 810,000 acres of it. Same type of country and just as exciting. I managed to blast away at my hearts content. A shit load more animals to shoot on this Cattle Station.

I took two rifles with me, used the 300 win mag mostly until I ran out of ammo then hauled out the 375 H & H. Next year I'll only take the 375, the four legged friends don't like that one.

Numbers shot were:
Day 1 - 14 Donkeys & 3 pigs
Day 2 - 8 Horses, 16 Donkeys & 1 Pig
Day 3 - 1 Donkey & 2 Pigs
Day 4 - 2 Horses & 7 Donkeys
Day 5 - 11 Donkeys

My 2nd biggest tally in the 7 years of going to the NT.

Saw heaps of Buffalo but since I got my trophy bull last year I'm not really keen on getting another one, no bloody room at home for the head.

Most of the pigs that I drilled were big buggers, I brought back a nice jaw which is getting zapped by Maf, will pick it up next week.

Didn't see any Dogs on this trip which was quite surprising, they are always tricky little fcukers to shoot.

Lots of other stuff besides shooting went on, there was never a dull moment but after 10 days away it was good to be home.

Cheers,
