G'day

Here are some pics from the latest hunting trip with trash one. Alot of planing was put into the trip and it was all worth it.

We went on to a few differnet properites and they were all top spots. on this perticular one,Dad took two pigs but the picture shown was his biggest. It was at this place i was introduced to scrub bulls, and i wont become fond of them in a hurry

on another property(with more scrub bull), I stalked in a mob of about 6-10 pigs which was full of sows and young hogs. I managed to take two pigs from the mob which were a perfect size to eat( with trash one chilli marinate)

I would like to thank butch and jo for putting their time and effort into this trip, and also Nick and Graham's great company.

Adam

Thanks ET but keep scroungin!

Jeff

ET

Good effort mate. Nice pig and excellent photos.

It's one of my ambitions to successfully combine canoes and bows on a successful hunt one day. They go together like peaches and cream.

Mick


PS: I like the old man's yellow fletches.

Nice one mate

Well done on the pig ET Sure is some nice looking country in your pics

good pics ET do you blokes see many big crocs where you go canoeing? I wouldn't dream of canoeing in any river up this way any more, way to many big cheeky crocs

BEAR

Well done to you ET & dad, top pics as well

Congrats to you all on a successful trip.
Some great pics there to ET.

and like MickS, I love the idea of the canoe and bows for a hunting trip.

Way to go lads.

thanks guys

and yes bear, there were crocs there but they were only freshys.There is supposed to be a 4 meter salty down stream but we did not canoe down that way,we just walked.

As most of you said, canoes and trad hunting are a great match. Also a great challenge, because I did take shoots sitting in the canoe.

Mick

the yellow fletch do lookgood on Dads arrows. they matched well with black cocks feathers.

Stickbow

the wasnt as much nugura bur as the was last year.Butch was plucking them out of his beard for a week

ET

Fishing AND hunting in the one trip , now thats what I call a good time

Jeff

ET

Hi ET...


congatulations on having some great pictures to show us mate..

cheers
Steve..

Thanks for posting the excellent Pics ET. I've really enjoyed them.

I was wondering what poundage you're taking those pigs with as I'm heading up to Darwin soon and I was wondering if I should bother taking my bow.

Regards.

Oliver.

ET

What a great set of photos. Nicely shows the essence of your trip. I think you have given the hint for a few more photos of hunting trips.

p.s. What was the camera?

G'day oliver
The poundage of my Black Dog Bow is 42#@24", and a sharp broadhead helps with the penetration.

I was using Dad's Olympus SP-500 UZ, 6mp with 10x optical zoom


ET

Hay ET
I bet it's good to be back at school hay ?. You did a top job on that pig the first shot was on the money but it was good to see you get that quick second shot in even though it probably wasn't needed.
The camp would have been better if that cranky sick and sore hairy faced bugger wasn't there, I don't think that I'll ever go bush again unless I'm feeling 100%.
You would have liked being here over the last week we have been yarning with a bloke who is pretty switched on about arra penetration and how to achieve it.

CATCH YA
BUTCH

g'day butch

Its alright to be back at school and also getting back to what i usually do on my weekends.
And don't think that you stuffed the whole trip because it was just good to be out and about in the bush, especially in country i haven't really hunted.

ET

Well !!!!! Its about time ET, i was thinkin i might have to put somethin in here but thats a worry as you know i have been known to exagertate things a bit. Nice photos mate good to see you enjoyed yourself. But remember you just never know when the scarlet Manuka may strick again....

G'day strowy

I Don't know whether Graham will ever forgive you for that.
I can still remember the look on his face. .

also it was good to met you and thanks for coming.

ET

PS: Dad asked if you could check your PMs

Fantastic photos!

I love the canoe idea! Just like hunting the adrioniks...

It's been awhile since I've dropped by. Good to see you still out there pestering the wildlife ET. Nice pig and some beautiful country you are hunting/fishing in. Keep those arrows flying. CK
