The hunting storey goes like this we walked and walked and walked and walked and yes we walked some more. with me only getting one shot away at a wallabie and had my arrow deflect of a small tree branch and miss him. :evil: The only shot I had through the scrub and it had this small branch hanging across the opening. Murphey strickes again.

I'll have to wait to post the pics of the ray.

Hood,

Wallabies feral in NZ?

[HOOD]

Yep wallabies are ferral over there along with possums, turkeys, peacocks, stoats (ferrets), rabbits, goats, pigs, deer blah blah blah.
Rats are even on their game claim over there.
