[@jreverie7018]

Thanks so much for documenting this! I'm from up north, never went hunting or a night out in the bush. Learnt a bunch from this video. Edible plant info is good to know for sure! Cheers again

[@rethils]

Awesome video bro. Keep them coming! Sad that the Goat lost his friend though but I'm just a softie I guess...

[@andymarriott6349]

Good work Zac, vids are coming along nicely. That big billy could have been a challenge to eat, now that would have shown comitment to the video. LOL:)

I was told not to take the mamaku unless it was a true emergency survival situation as they can't regenerate very well

[@zachines5010]

Who told u that?? Mamaku on my property when pruned grow relitivky quick and tend to live upwards of 50 years they throw fronds pretty regularly

[@meatavoreNana]

There were 3 fronds , he took one. Sound practice😊

[@wolfscorogardens6098]

That’s only when you take top heart of tree out. That will kill it

[@outthereslaying]

[@PokèDecree]

[@zachines5010]

The silver tree fern yeah you can eat the new koru or the pith but I wouldn't eat the pith bro you need to kill the tree for it. Not that hungry unless you needed to!!

[@meatavoreNana]

[@calscamping]

Awesome vid mate new sub here 👍

[@KayJ47]

Great vid

[@anthonythang5576]

Boulder creek ?

[@zachines5010]

Yeah man usually a deer on thoes faces seems the only time i watwd there to be one theres none 🤣

[@stagdown4705]

Hey mate how do u make the Manuka tea ? Cheers

[@zachines5010]

Hey man manuka or pine leaf tea is wicked. Pine needle tea has 3 to 5 times the vitc than orange juice. Manuka tea u only need about 3 teaspoons worth of leaves i usually just snap off a small twig thst will fit in my jet boil. Boil water first and drop manuka in bare leaves or a small branch. Leave for 3 min cover jet boil keep all nutrients in! Pine needles i do 5 min ill add a vid later. Honestly they taste amazing and real good for you! Not bitter like ud expect theyr sweet

[@Rarraraaw-ru7qt]

youre awesome

[@astrowi8999]

eat the rest of the goat?

[@zachines5010]

Yeah bro took the rest home for a curry and dog bones!! Hate waste

[@anthonymurphy3081]

I was in there a few weeks ago and saw that exact goat,in the same spot. Contemplated shooting it for the skin. Dunno if I would have eaten it though, I'd rather the ferns. nice video mate.

[@zachines5010]

Haha yea boiled goats not the go! Howd you get on usually a few deer hanging around but nothing that morning! I saw a few deer up high but no food wasn't to keen on the climb!

[@anthonymurphy3081]

@@zachines5010 yea ok, have shot a few deer and pigs in there but few and far between, think they are pretty nocturnal arround the river. Always plenty of sign on the river to keep you interested though.

[@stephenfitzpatrick9189]

Here is a tip . Never ever eat a Billy goat unless you really, really, really, really have to . Even then , don't . The look on your face was priceless. Cheers .

[@zachines5010]

Yeqh bro 100 percent 🤣

[@anthonythang6714]

[@zachines5010]

[@Roman-hs7pl]

Was getting your firearms license hard ?

[@zachines5010]

nah iv had it for 15years and renewed once was always pretty straightforward! however when you go for one now its defiantly alot harder but still plenty of guys getting it.
