S7 Ep 3 Sambar Out of Lockdown

In 2020, Victoria and the city of Melbourne endured one of the toughest and longest covid lockdowns in the world. Understandably it was tough on everyone, but those who call the bush and the outdoors home suffered immensely under the house arrest conditions. This hunt is the first one out of lockdown for Rob, and it sums everything that is good about being out in the bush, stalking deer and the challenge that is Victoria’s mighty Sambar Stag.

[@colinbridge3466]

Good to see you in the bush again , just goes to show smashing through that regrowth is always painful and seems like a waste of time but sometimes it pays off

[@BeyondTheDivideTV]

Cheers mate, yes very true just got to keep on pushing!

[@sharons9367]

Watching 3 min in is it my eyes or does your bull bar meant to move that much

[@daveroberts8347]

Great to see you back out there,

[@BeyondTheDivideTV]

Cheers Dave, plenty more content coming soon

[@FishandHunt]

Big old troll. Love the gnarly heads. Interesting what you were saying about body shape in older Sambar stags. Everything you said also applies to Red stags. I'm an expat Kiwi but I live and hunt Red's up here in Central West of NSW. To quickly gauge a Red stag on the hoof I'm looking for a rectangle head shape, not a triangle like the younger stags have, a big block rectangle body shape, a low hanging stomach and that body blending into neck look.

[@BeyondTheDivideTV]

Thanks mate, great stuff yes this applies to most deer, just the big old boys are rare hey, but it makes the hunt so much more worthwhile when you do eventually find them! Cheers, Rob.

Thanks buddy

What happened to this fantastic show on WTV44 Perth WA?

[@BeyondTheDivideTV]

The CH44 Network was forced to shut down in many areas and broadcasts costs were very high and hard to justify for a small independent production like BTD. We have all episodes coming to KZbin soon as well as new content.
