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.

Nice lookin country.

I've got to get back down south that country looks to good thanks ;)

Im sure shaving your head really sorted that baldness out :thumbsup:

Nice looking spot there Gimp

Always enjoy seeing photos from down south.

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

Cheers.

It weighs about 700grams, I don't mind the carry too much.

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;)

you dont need much of a story with good pics :cool:

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.

Ah it wasn't my idea

Awesome pics there! :D

Mate, there is an old saying that goes, "Don't judge a book by its cover"!
As to Hair, a shaved head looks far better than a Comb Over!!!

Doh!
