Thread: Report on my shortest ever hunt

Bugger, speedy recovery

Do you wear a knee brace, if so which one? I have to wear one on each leg.

That sucks mate, I feel your pain knee injuries absolutely suck. Make sure to get it checked out too.

Man that's no good , ul no the silver lining though aye ! , best thing to do is take a mate , couple of years ago me & my bro in law were way up high in the godley looking at tahr while we were having our lunch , rito lets get into them bro went to stand up , crack dislocated knee at around 2000M up not good luckly we both had a plb , 2 other retarded things happened after that as well
Pleased you made it home !

Most places I go are a fair walk often alone always carry plb hope you have a quick recovery

Yep I always have my PLB with me. There's no way I could get my self out of most places I go if this was to happen.

I guess I'd rather have it happen where it did as opposed to way back in a nargly spot.

That was bad luck especially when you were so looking forward to a day in the hills. Hope your recovery is quick, spring is coming!!! At least the canon faired well.

Could of being worse... 2hr walk back with a load of meat...’pop’ goes the knee....makes ya think ...

Hell yes, it could have been way more of a drama to get out that's for sure.

I've been involved in a chopper winch rescue of a mate I was hunting with at the time, it's all quite a fuss really that I don't really want to be made over me unless it really needs to be.

Ouch, lucky you were close to youre vehicle,hope you mend quickly,when you do let me know we'll go for a wander,

ratshit, have done the kneecap three times myself and have had to have surgery to remove loose bodies knocked off by the dislocation. knee is already not right unable to run etc and i'm only 28! a brace is probably a god idea but a big of a bugger to have to wear in the bush

Get better soon,man

Is it a good thing that it happened so close to your truck and you got out quickly/easily?
Better than being a statistic

That sux, but good that you weren’t in the backwoods. But I don’t get it - I thought that 28Nosler investment would allow you to pick off the deer from your back yard? What happened?

Unfortunately the only 4 legged animals in my backyard are these.....and I reckon I might upset a few people if I had a crack at them
