    A relaxing summer trip

    Went away with a couple of blokes witch has become a common event with more in the pipe line

    This year plans at last minute where changed witch was cool got to check out some more country
    Was good company, nice place an good trip, even tho no monsters where harmed was still a good trip with its good value of laughs.

    Rivers where cold are was hot but the entertainment factor was there.

    Had a hell of a time holding it the laughs on the last night while our 'visitor' was having a hell of a struggle below
    An sounded like I was sleeping with a few v8s at times

    Here's some nature photos



    Temptation on day one for camp meat




    The company


    More scenery shots



    And a couple of these wee buggers






    The monster..............that never was but as camp meat for the marinade


    And a little vid of couple more
    young bulls - YouTube

    May there be many more fellas

    Bloody brilliant.
    It takes 43 muscle's to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger pull.
    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!
    Rule 1: Treat every firearm as loaded
    Rule 2: Always point firearms in a safe direction
    Rule 3: Load a firearm only when ready to fire
    Rule 4: Identify your target beyond all doubt
    Rule 5: Check your firing zone
    Rule 6: Store firearms and ammunition safely
    Rule 7: Avoid alcohol and drugs when handling firearms

    Yup. I don't know how he does it. Venison must just be cash flow. Did you see a few reds or was there a lot of sign? They don't usually hole up there till late Jan early Feb.
