Thread: Yessssssssssssss......8 point heaven.......

I truely like your thinking Scouser,that when you heard the first roars you were thinking of your mates roaring at you.

A lot could learn from this.

good shit

Cheers mate, have really enjoyed the journey, i like 'going bush' and making my own tracks instead of
following the DOC tracks, makes things 'more real' if you get my drift

This is something ive wanted to do for a long time, its not a 'bucket list tick' and now I'll pack in.....

Bring it on, will probably do a 'fly in Roar' next year as my hunting buddy is as keen as me.......

So cool to read this thread title with your name on it Scouser. I only got my first 18 months ago after faaaar too many trips and hours 'earning' it. After him, I downed another five (one of them a good 9point Red) within four months. So, lock and load mate! You're into them now

So happy for you, have you come back down to earth yet, does work still mean absolutely nothing too you...

Well done

Nice work Scouser!

I remember that feeling, every time I closed my eyes I saw the cross-hairs and the animal dropping behind them!

Sore cheeks from the massive grin I couldn't shake for several days

Oh yeah, cant really tell too many people about it though, they would not understand!!!!!

Bloody well done Scouser. I've been putting off getting into this thread till I got a good bit of time in order to savour every word. Great right up, felt like I was there.

Cheers GM, as im a newbie it still hasn't really sunk in yet, id still be beaming if it was a spiker or hind.....but to 'call in' a roaring stag during the roar for my first is 'mental'!!!!!!!!

With all the tidbits and advise you got about sign and what to look for, did you have a look at the "poo pellets" that would have come out when you were gutting your stag?
There is no fresher sign than that

I'm a newbie too. Haven't had the opportunity to get out for a look yet. That's what I was going to do in the new year till plans got changed for me. That meat will taste so sweet knowing the work you put in for it and the knowledge that you did it.
