Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Australia battered - 'stralia huntin' Primer

KC,
As I posted above, you can still hunt, just hook up with someone there and have them take you out, using their rifles. Most Aussies would be willing to take you out and show you their country, just get yourself there and help cover the cost of fuel, food and beer.

jt,
There are very few true dingos left, they have been interbred with feral domestic dogs. All are on the hit list for hunters. The cats are feral domestic cats and they ALL need to die. The native wildlife there takes a beating from them as there are few native predators.

As the Aussies like to say, "If it's feral, it's in peril!"

there is a lot of dingos well west of the coastline but a dog is a dog so shoot it

We also consider feral cats as enemies of small game birds and song birds as well. Feral dogs are the enemy of sheep and goat producers. Same everywhere.

im gonna be heading down and not hunting with an outfitter......means i dont get to use my own rifle but no big deal i can adapt.....hooking up with some guys ive talked to here and elsewhere, throwing in money in the pot for fuel and food and gonna have some fun....

I like reading about this for sure.

But it sure makes one happy to live here, where they are only slowly eroding our gun rights..

I can't imagine not being somewhere without a knife, I had one visiting the smithsonians in DC and had to leave it outside...

I can't imagine being tough to own a handgun.

Or not owning a dozen or so ARs. Or being able to shoot them right out my back door, suppressed, full auto etc.. whenever I choose.

wasnt that long ago and Oz didnt have all these rules either.....

Rattler , Chuck in a sleeping bag, most of us would have spare swags etc, and a stubby holder

just remember ive got no house, no job and no payments i have to make waiting for me back here in the states.....may decided i like hunting deer with hounds and your not gonna be able to get rid of me

Just get here Thursday afternoon ,we can go away Thursday night and hunt fri/sat. . Stay on if you want

appreciate it, would love to be able to stick around a bit and prowl around with my camera in hand......from the videos your place is completely different from Aussielad's and battered's as far as vegetation and such

Watch you don't end up going Feral! :-)

He was gettin that way in Texas but we reined him in

hey now.....havent even started chasing double-breasted-mattress thrashers yet......

You won't be chasing them over where i live . camel toes and moose knuckles abound in the valley.
However Melbourne has some good girls in the higher class Establishments that exist around town

prolly save most my chasing for when im done catching up with you, Troy and battered, afterall no hurry for me to get back to the states....can do some looking when i aint taking up your time since your nice enough to show me around and take me out for some hunting got the rest of my life to chase split tail.....

Hone.....watching those DVD's you sent...again....i really cant wait to be down there with camera in hand let alone the chance with a rifle.....had forgotten you have lyrebirds around your place.....one of the neatest critters, gonna have to stalk around the bush and try and get a pic even if it aint the time of year the males are displaying....

It's gunna be an good time mate, really looking forward to it

Up the top of the Street is all national Park , Lyrebirds, Deer all over the place, You can wander around up there all day with a camera .Bush can be a bit thick in some places .

i cant wait either.....

good to know Hone, i can put some water and a lunch in a pack and wonder around while your at work or whatever.....hate to make the journy to your place and only be there for a few days of hunting when your area looks so much different than the pics ive seen of the stuff where battered hunts and the pics ive seen around Troys....being able to take a few days to just wander around with the camera at my own pace would be great....
