    Whirinaki blues........

    Hi guys, took 2 days annual leave and spent 4 days in the Whirinaki forest, i fired and missed a Red spiker about 6 weeks ago there, forum member Bill999 gave me some good advice that
    'Winter deer do not move around much'.....so back i went for the bugger!!!!!

    all three days i spent hunting, i saw a 'shit load' of fresh sign, but did not see a deer for the whole w'end.....oh well, theres always another trip.....

    pissed down the whole 4 days as well!!!!!!!.....man cave full of wet gear drying out right now......

    What a bugger Scouser. I will have to arrange a time down there with you but probably not until November now.
    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

    Brilliant BH, like most bush its thick in places, but nice n open in others! theres a few 4 wheel drive forestry tracks to help you move in & out at pace, to get to where you want to hunt, helps with the leg aches!!!!!

    Sounds good Rushy!!!!!

    Yeah cheers mate, i knew when i took this 'challenge' on it would not be easy, still love going out and getting 'off track' in the bush on my own........scary & character building at the same time!!!!!!
