    Tahr hunt - a few photos.

    Got out for a quick trip in South Canterbury on my last break from work back home, saw and shot a few tahr, not much of a story to tell but here are a couple of photos.













    I'm hilariously bald-looking in that photo. Shaved my head as soon as I got home! Bull was only 11.5" whoops.

    Im sure shaving your head really sorted that baldness out

    Always enjoy seeing photos from down south.

    Thats a pretty hefty tripod to be carting around isn't it?

    Cheers.

    Nice country, nice photo's, nice bull.

    All this baldness talk.... its a genetic advancement on hairy people. We were once covered in hair and through the process of evolution we became less hairy. Thinning and balding is just progression

    I heard they had to hold you back from shooting all the nannies and juvies Pete...:grin:

    The red mist decended and he kept shooting and shooting... then we had to carry all the meat out... :grin:

    Looks like a nice area, the bull Clay got was a good size, plenty of them in there by the looks of his photos, just not any big wall hangers.
    If it's not a first round hit you need to practice more
