Plenty of pig hunting in OZ...just about everywhere in Queensland has a pig problem....there is quite a lot of properties in the Brisbane valley with lovely Red deer, further north, Rusa and Fallow can be found...plenty of wild dogs and foxes....

I personally have been after a couple of boars this week that the doggers won't let their dogs go in on....sooks..mind you, I make it a habit of always knowing how far the closest tree is.
These suckers are close to the 120kg mark...yep..there is plenty of bowhunting happening in OZ.

Canada is great, I spent time with a professional Moose hunter....unbelievable.

Cheers

zappa5000...just put you gear in a golf case and there won't be a problem, anyway, you can get all you need here in OZ and its way cheaper for you.....not for us though :roll:

anything to do with archery downunder can be classified as 'weapons of mass reduction'..of the bank balance :wink:

cheers

Down south, Victoria. bunny and fox hunting is pretty good right now, most animals struggle with the draught so head more to the outskirts of regional areas, so it's quite easy to suss them out
