    Maybe. Depends what sort of kick you get out of reloading and spending time on the range. Also whether you are already successful in the field or not. If you only get to go hunting say a total of 7...

    1080 does a real job on the wallaby. Reduces them to pretty much zero. Trouble is they don't do big enough adjoining areas at the same time so they soon re-populate. And they only seem to do the the...

    Unfortunately poison isn't the whole answer either though, one bad application and the little buggers learn to avoid it. Happened up our way, the material for some reason didn't do the job and the...

    I have a vizsla/ wirehaired vizsla. She's small at 2 years 25ish kilo which helps throwing her over fences and obstacles. Best part about vizslas is versatility we go from shooting deer in the...
