    The fucking roar hasn't started yet so I doubt it.

    Went to go on a hunt this morning but my engine light came on 100 metres down the road! I drive a 2008 Ford Ranger so had no clue about diagnosing the problem myself and considering I was going to be down a 30km long gravel road decided to turn around. Couldn't get hold of a Ford service person till 9am. Quick run through on the computer testing thingee and he says I'd have been sweet to carry on, it was simply a sensor out of whack. Needed to know that at 5am this morning! Now I'm going stir crazy at home!!!!

    New vehicles eh.
    I'm drawn to the mountains and the bush, it's where life is clear, where the world makes the most sense.

    I know there is a song with this line in it but
    I'm all packed and I'm ready to go. I can hear the (delete motorcycles and insert 12 point stags) roar
    Now which band was that?
    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

    Ha Ha Ha That stag has never seen native bush in its life. NI or SI anyone know? If its NI it is an escapee somewhere along the line? Those treys are huge for a wild animal.
    The chiller trailer and the fact an animal of that quality is not caped correctly, make it a bit suss as well.
    Why the fuck is it, in almost every photo ya see these days, the head is removed half way down the neck? Dont people know how to use a knife and dress an animal anymore?
    1 or 2 cuts in the right spot and the head comes off clean as a whistle. Way easier than mucking around with sealed joints in the neck.

    Do what ya want! Ya will anyway.

    You will be pleased that this one is cut off correctly then



    Shot him last night. Hell of a load of meat to carry for a couple of hours. .223 & 55 grn Barnes TTSX @ 117 yds; great medicine.





    Sorry Dundee and Neckshot, I've been up into your area again. I sneaked in and out last night without a visa stamp.
