Lousy success on my last two trips away and covid has put my trips on hold ...I’m guessing it’s been 8 months maybe since I have been hunting in the bush ....I have nailed down a trip that’s definite and nothing will stop mE two weeks from now .....how longs it been for everybody else ?

Been doing well. Even got a few pigs with the muzzleloader.
But with the wet it'll be no go till May now.
Where you going?
What you chasing?
One well placed shot is all it takes.

Reckon I’ve been out every 2-3 weeks recently, be it on nursery shoots, orchards or big blocks out west....
Heading out next week as well. It’s wheat harvesting time and the stubble calls me!!! I know it will be game on cos the property owner reckons there were plenty of pigs around while he was in the header....

Heading for a favourite spot which will remain unnamed :lol: in exactly 14 and a half days time. High hopes because game maybe not so shy, complacent without people around last 8 months.
Vic so we got a crap year with cov wog escaping into the community. All work no play. Pretty confident we’ve smashed it now though :thumbsup: and fingers crossed.
Regional areas are taking bookings so get in fast.
Well done Team Victoria, did our nation proud :drinks: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=7hOK5JF5XGA

If you can get out and about then good for you. I am, at this point in time, quite jealous. :cry:
