There weer no Deer in Hauturu way back in my days there.

PS
How many of you/us have them and take them out into the wilds ??

I do not

Absolutely take one now. Not really any reason not too with them at just $300 for a small one. The batteries last for 10 years, then just $100 odd to replace them after that time. I held off till they came down in price form 1k plus and only lasting a couple of years.

Places i end up, especially pig hunting and 98% of the time hunting solo if something happened i'd likely never be found. Small cost for the cover you get out of them, i recommend them for everyone!
