G Day from "Down Under"

April, May and June are mostly put aside for me and my Sambar Deer Hunting. Thats not to say that I don't hunt any time, but that's the main time I love travelling up into the Victorian High Country Hunting..."NO BLOODY Snakes".

This year I went to a Different Tact and Location, namely "Swifts Creek", which is basically at the fppt of Mt Hotham, a 4 1/2 hrs drive from home.

Then I did another first........I got "Written Permission" from the landowners, to spotlight Bambi, on their properties.
Yes you heard it right, to Spotlight Deer.

Now you may think that this is cheating, and frankly so do I, but Sambar Deer are in such big numbers here, that Game Management Victoria, amended it's "no spotlights" rule probably 4 years back, and until this year, I resisted.
Not any more.
Bugger it, "I'm in for the Kill, too".

Could be very interesting....!.........Give it a try, see if I like it !

If I don't, then its back up to my favorite place, the "Dog Hill", the Airstrip, up hill from Mt Tamboretha, Horseyard Flat, and the Alpine National Park

Cheers

Hombre
You'll keep
I have still got a bit of Bambi, left in my fridge...
Pies, Suasages, Schnitzels, and mince....

How much Did you say you had ????

Bloody hell Ron....what drugs you on Mate ?

I actually have kissed the Blarney Stone, so I am allowed to stretch the stories a little.

Gunna be one of those days !

In the last few weeks I have had a group{4} of deer on or around my property. I love living out here in the countryside.
I sure would like to go on one of those hunting trips but I know it isn't going to happen so I sure would like to hear the whole story of your hunting excursion down under. I doubt it will have as much action as one from Hombre though, but it might not have as much dung in the mind picture portrayed either. Hombre can have a good time even in not so good times. That's the way to be though.

..

I could fill your head with a million hunting stories.
Been hunting all my life, and still am..
I'm 65 in May, and love it .

Stalking Sambar deer is my passion these days, but I still go out Fox shooting, mainly to help out a couple of Dairy Farming Mates of mine.
I am a Passionate reloader, and love going out and testing various troublesome hunting rifles of mates, and loads.

basically I can do anything I like, "as long as SWMBO lets me".

Cheers

That is an interesting ask ....
If I get a decent set of "racks" I'll mount them.
Will probably do something, if I ever get up to my new, or favourite spots.

Would a set of "in velvet" antlers, like these do ?
