Moto hunt pics

With summer coming up I'm starting to get the moto hunting fever again. Hunting using motorbikes to access the back country is always good fun and adds another dimension to the hunt. I also have a specific rifle I use for this for portability. Here's a couple of pics from my past hunts- chuck some up/ be good to see what other people use/hunt with.

Marokopa area. I think that photo was my first pig, which was in 1983 at age 13.

Can’t think of your last name at moment. It’ll come to me. I was first introduced to that block Easter 96 through the a mate of mine who was a mate of the managers. They were hard out opening up the main track to the top. The back paddocks were ring fern n other rubbish. Dave (can’t remember last name) bought it.

Just broken down into my daypack. I'm thinking of getting some saddlebags to carry extra gear on the bike and take some weight off my shoulders though. Bit too fatiguing on a long ride.

To be fair I wouldn’t have a clue who owned what before who/when. I know it was a cool block. There was Kennoway Station on the coast side and Neville....? on the inland side.
Could be wrong I think Kennoway and your block have being sold since and are running now as one.

Ah ha - Stewart - trying to remember which one he was - district was full of Shaw's ;-)
Heavy flats ah - I recognized the bluffs immediately that rim that whole side.
Suppose Ivan gone but boys (who I boarded at school with) will be running it now Stan or Johnny - one was an ace Rugby player too - Johnny I think
