| Thanks for sharing your story. From your pictures, the forest looks pretty thick and it is probably difficult to get many clear shots. How large is the state-owned land that you are able to hunt? |

Hi Barry
Your right the forest is thick and difficult to get a clear shot in , there are fire breaks but you don't get much time to get a shot off .The forest is about 270acres ,not very big by your standards but one of our members farm runs into it and also his brother in laws land is next to us as well so it gives us a bit of variety. Its big enough to leave you tired after a tramp around it , and any game you take home is well earned.
All the best WJ. |
