Guest benhohnke Posted September 2, 2006 Report Share Posted September 2, 2006 got up at 5:15 this morning and got ready for my second trad hunt. we got dropped off at seven and walked up into the hills. We were hoping to smash a bunny at the rabbit warren when i saw some goats on the oppisite ridge. Tim filmed while i climbed up the dry noisy hill after the goats. When i reached the top i could not see the goats and walked up the hill alot more and still could not see the goats. But just then i saw a fox chasing some grass hoppers i quickly crouched down and started whistleing. He bolted straight for me and when he got to 20m he got my scent and he was off like a bucket of prawns in the sun. I decided to head back to the rabbit hole when i saw the goats in the gully i had came from. I closed the gap to 25m and realised tim had followed and was stalking the goats but they knew he was there and started walking off but it was to late the 11/32 poc shaft with ozcrest, tipped with razor sharp tusker javelin smashed down threw the boiler room of a white nanny and passed completly threw it and into its best mates chest that was standing behind it and hung out the over side of the ginger goat. the slowly walked up the hill but i wasn't sure of the shot so they copped another one each and they soon expired. After a photo session we walked back to try get some bunnies. which was unsuccesful we also saw another fox and some pigs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tallone Posted September 7, 2006 Report Share Posted September 7, 2006 Re: 2nd time lucky I don't know what a bucket of prawns and why the sun gets them going but I enjoyed reading about it anyway. Congrats on the great shot and the two goats! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest benhohnke Posted September 8, 2006 Report Share Posted September 8, 2006 Re: 2nd time lucky (And they were off like a bucket of prawns in the sun) if you leave prawns in the sun they go off just like the goats took off Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
