G'day, been a bit quiet on here lately, too much damn work. :roll: Got out with Blue (my brother) and my old man. Was mainly a deer trip, but we happened onto some goats, so shot the billies out of it. Blue and I got 2 each. His with his T3 Lite in 270 and I got mine with my new T3 Lite 300WM. Needless to say, they both worked well. The goats, Blue shot the biggest one. I look forward to the day when I get to shoot the big ones again. Blue shot his first ever deer the next day We never saw the fawn with it before the shot, so I quickly put a 300 into it. Then, the moment of the trip, Blue goes looking for dads goat that dad shot the night before. He couldn't find it so heads further up the gulley and suddenly a deer is crashing off through the scrub and it's a buck. Blue quickly lines it up and nails it on the run with his 270, bloody good effort. Blue was over the moon big time and dad and I happy as for him too. Geez, he was in good nick, so much fat on him All up, a good trip. 5 deer, 5 goats and 1 fox :goodstuff:

Cheers guys. I hope to get on here a bit more soon. Thinking of taking a new job, 2 weeks on, 2 weeks off, plus 4 weeks of annual leave, means I only have to work 5 months of the year. Beats my current job where I work 290 odd 12 hour days a year. Less money of course, but what a life. Won't be on here for a few weeks, I'm off to New Zealand on monday for 12 days of hunting. Sure gonna be one hell of a trip. Report and pics when I get back.
