Hi all
I Recently returned from another incredible trip. Peter and I were successful this time in harvesting a nice deer to fill the freezer.

What a trip the walk in was uneventful but once we got to the river to cross that's when everything changed. I tried the river, however it just wanted to sweep me down stream, so a change of tact was decided.

We decided on an alternate route following the river around to a suitable camp. This tested the 62 year old legs, one stage I lost my footing and was sliding down a steep face heading for the river, a hairy moment! I used every ounce of strength to stop the slide and thankfully I was successful! I had to abandon the r***e on the fall down, Peter heart in mouth was certain I was heading for the drink! An adventure before the adventure!

4hrs later we got to a spot we could set up camp. The next 4 days we covered huge amounts of distance and were successful in harvesting a 4 year old Stag. He was quartering about 200m behind a tree, perfect placement just off his righthand should blade he rolled and dropped on the spot huge thank you to Nathan Foster for helping me develop the perfect load for Alpine hunting.

We were able to really understand the terrain and the animal movements through this area and every time we go we learn something new which allows us to have a stronger plan. I don't usually like taking young stags out of circulation but we really needed to bring home some meat on this trip.

I have set up a couple of cameras, as we want to understand the times they move through areas. We are back in to check the cameras in about 5 weeks. I hope you enjoy the pictures.

Good to see Nathan has the time again to educate the world on the truth about hunting, ballistics and calibre understanding.

Hi all,
Well I have to say another very interesting video put up by Nathan Foster. I have used Nathan for the past 15 years as an mentor in preparing and using a hunting r***e correctly. He would have to be one of the most experienced ballistic experts in the world around hunting cartridges. I would encourage anyone interested in being a better marksman and taking game humanely and consistently then go and look at his website Ballistic Studies. I am not saying you will be able to shoot 600 to a 1000 yards like he can, but you will learn how to fire a r***e correctly. My max after 15 years is around 500 yards and I am more than happy with that. Could I shoot further probably but would I have the confidence to repeat it humanely no so I don't take the shot. The amount of times I have taken a shot at distance is rare but I practice all year round just in case.

Finally bagged a pig at the extreme range of 'just below us'.www.b...

Hi all well first hunting trip for the year out the way it was fantastic to get back in the bush, sign was a bit scares but we did see a few animals but closing the gap was a bit of a challenge. I have a challenge of my own for everyone. In photo number 1 if you can pick were the closest spot a stag is, I will gift anything off the Trekpac website except the food to the value of $100. Just drop a spot on the photo message me and after a week I will pick the successful person.

Good Morning All Just some pictures of a recent hunting trip to one of my favorite spots. Unfortunately the deer were scarce this time. But on the way out half way back to the car I stopped for a quick drink in front of a fallen gum branch. I had a feeling something was looking at me as I turned my head in the direction standing behind a tree about 150 yards was a magnificent Sambar Stag just looking at me. I could only see half of him as he was hidden by the tree but the side I could see was impressive. I stood still for what felt like eternity releasing there was no way of shouldering my r***e so I decided to try and get a photo on my phone. As soon as I reached for the phone in my bino rig he completed a 180 and disappeared in a blink that encounter made my trip.
