That was a fantastic report, I really enjoyed it! I can definitely see the appeal in that type of hunt after night hunting for a porcupine last year. However the sleeping in the blind factor with the risk of snoring never occurred to me.....and I can really sound like a bear everyone likes to tell me!
I am always amazed at the talent so many members have in the writing of these hunt reports. You’re on that list!
Thanks for reading. This hunt is like 5 mini-leopard hunts at a fraction of the cost. A supremely rewarding hunt for animals that not a lot of hunters see, much less hunt. No, there is no ka-bu-bi and being carried around on a chair and celebrated when you return to camp with your trophy, but the sense of accomplishment and the value and memory of the experience is quite the same.
Nugget here. A guide gave me the nickname as I looked similar to Nugent at the time. Hunting for over 50 years yet I am new to hunting in another country and its inherent game species. I plan to do archery. I have not yet ruled out the long iron as a tag-along for a stalk. I am still deciding on a short list of game. Not a marksman but better than average with powder and string.
Hey mate,
How are you?
Have really enjoyed reading your thread on the 416WSM... really good stuff!
Hey, I noticed that you were at the SSAA Eagle Park range... where about in Australia are you?
Just asking because l'm based in Geelong and l frequent Eagle Park a bit too.
Next time your down, let me know if you want to catch up and say hi
Take care bud
