Hopefully end of this month or mid feb but I'm thinking end of this month will be a bit better as there has been a bit of rain to make stalking a bit easyier.

Im in NSW mate but grew up in Victoria in-between sale and bairsdale on property. I grew up on hog deer and sambar hunting before I could walk with my dad. I've only shot one sambar with my rifle but have a fair few hog deer under my belt.

Ah hog deer now that would be nice with the trad gear!
On my list to seriously hunt in the future.

Cheers Mate

Yea I've done alot of photography when I was younger on hog deer and sambar and the sambar were alot more alert I found, but in saying that the country that sambar reside in is alot harder stalking country too.
