ARCHIVAL FOOTAGE - Prime time for hunting the Sambar deer. Dennis Wells and myself hiked into Clear Country, Moroka River off Long Spur for a 4-5 day back pack trip back on the 18 of October 2004. Thirty years ago this type of hunting (Think Like A Deer) was virtually unheard. You could hunt and observe elusive Sambar going to bed up for the afternoon or browse their way down to the river flats in the afternoon from a higher elevation.

Awesome as always Reg. I remember many many years ago calling you and getting you to post me your dvds! Watched them endlessly. Always envied Dennis getting on those trips with you back in the day!! My 8 year old son and I now still watch your dvds. Thanks again for sharing all you have to date.

Fantastic stuff reg. I was only just getting into chasing sambar in 04 and was dreaming of what you were living! I must admit my niche is walking them up. There is alot more info on how to chase them now but its thanks to trail blazers like yourself.

Hi James, we were virtually camping where the deer lived 35 years ago. My love for photography gave me a different mindset to the conventional stalking methods. I needed to get close and personal to the deer to get those unique photographs and footage. Most hunters misunderstand the deer! When you are dealing with an animal that has exceptional hearing, smell, and invasive skills. They (deer) will beat you 99% of the time under fair chase pursuit. Most hunters today understand how to read deer sign, knowledge on deers movement, and the best periods to hunt. There's sh-t loads of information on media forums and magazines. But nothing is spoken about how to THINK LIKE A DEER. I'm trying my best to inform new hunters through my videos, showing them the vulnerabilities of the deer once you figure them out? Today, l still enjoy spending quality time with the deer, but it's not my primary objective when l go bush. Cheers Reggie

How green was the bush back then, post fire regrowth. Certainly very dry in there now. I actually sat in your camp and had lunch this week. Funny to see this video after having just been there.
