Thread: What I'm learning from the Kaimais

As the title suggests I'm learning a few things from that wonderful playground The Kaimais, as I'm getting back into hunting and learning everything over again, I'm realising I really didn't know much to start out with! So here's a few things I've been learned by the hills so far,
1. Supple jack does not care that you want to go in a certain direction, go around or be prepared to travel at half the speed of smell.
2. There really is no need to go look at every creek and stream in the catchment , you think it's a good idea going downhill but when forced to climb back up a dodgy cliff, cos the stream turned into a sheer drop waterfall of broken leg doom!! you realise that water, although very picturesque can lead you into some peril.
3. You can lie through your teeth to anyone about the state of your fitness, but you can't fool a hill !!
4. Deer in the Kaimais are far smarterer than I am and have beaten me thus far, been in a few times now, deer 2 Me 0, Actually deer 3, Sat and watched the rear end of a hind through the scope for about 2 minutes waiting for it to stand up only to realise it was already deceased ( had been shot through the neck and not recovered ) must admit I thought I was super ninja stalker getting so close to this animal without disturbing it, so was a big slap back down to earth when I finally realised the truth
5. And this is the most important one! Bush hunting is challenging but Damn it's Fun !!! You can't beat being in the bush.
Even when the bush is a steep, supplejack infested nightmare with super smart deer.
Cheers
