I shoot foxes from my front door. 67 so far.

I do like your style there. The same as shooting clays off the veranda at Christmas.

I spend a month in Australia every year visiting my son who's a dual citizen Aussie and American he's a Queenslander and quite quite proud of that. Go Brisbane Lions. I usually spend 10 days with him and his wife Aussie and then 10 days with a camper van on the wrong side of the road. Then 10 days back at Brisbane. Last 3 years Great Berrier Reef Lady Elliot, Great Ocean Road July this year Uluru, the Olgas and Kings Canyon, Next year?????

I love the country and especially the people truly some of the best you can find in the world. My only complaint is the shortage of large mammals to hunt. I can't get too excited about shooting a camel or water buffalo in the NT. Much respect to you Aussies on here you're a great country with great people thank you for the hospitality I always feel down under.

You have been spending some time traveling this great country of ours. I also highly recommend Purnululu National Park in the Kimberly and a flight over the Bungle Bungles, absolutely stunning.

You have also been awarded......

Quite an honor and much appreciated. I love the new suggestions, my son travels monthly throughout your fantastic country usually for work but always some play days included in each trip. I'm always interested in others suggestion where to go next. He's always trying to drown me as i don't do the ocean as well as he does so thank you. A quote from the dive boat guy. "Bloody hell mate you suck in the water you may drown."

Just hunt deer - reds , fallow and rusa
Occasionally help with wild dogs if farmer needs a hand.
Jealous wise would like to have moose , elk sheep and mountain goat but can't have it all.

Australia had Eighteen deer species introduced in the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. They included swamp deer , Bawean deer , Chinese water deer, mule deer , musk deer, reindeer , Eld’s deer, white-tailed deer , muntjac, roe deer , and barasingha. The remaining six species—those found in established wild populations in Australia today—include chital, hog deer, red deer, rusa, sambar, and fallow deer.

They also tried with Elk introductoon but it failed.

If all these got established would have been a good treat

Hey, thanks for the reply. I would agree about the Elk Sheep as they would be interesting to hunt. If I remember correctly, that a large local station holder here near me imported some Elk deer a while ago and let them breed. You can still see some crosses in the wild and fenced areas in the Chital and Red populations.
