Spent the week between Xmas and New Year chasing a few goats in the hills near home with a mate.
Most Ive seen in the area, mainly due to the winter burns off in the area to reduce the fuel loads and goats moving in to munch on regrowth.
Some places it has been near on impassable from all the vegetation but with the area burnt off it was a lot easier to see and hunt the goats in the area.
Shots ranged from 5m to about 200+m across a few of the gullies.
Some areas are that steep you can’t see the bottom.
The Remmy pump comes into its own in this type of country where the action is close range and fast!
You need to get your shots off quickly and accurately if you want to be successful.
We hunted morning and night when the goats were most active in the hills.
A good week and we managed to take 72 goats, good result considering the terrain.
A few pics of the week.
