Winter Solstice hunt for Sambar Deer over night

Hunting during on or around the winter solstice is a favourite time of mine. Come along on a Sambar hunt during the Solstice week.
Raw Sambar Hunt, as it happens.

Thanks for being honest about finding it hard to find motivation to get out there. It seems I’ve lost nearly all motivation for everything recently, it’s been a hard bunch of years for all of us. Keep the videos coming mate! I like your style.

The Woodleigh 140gn PPSP work great in my .280a.i. The R&N Blades Helium is an ideal lightweight knife too.

Bloody blackberry is horrible up the back of my place. You did well to get though that crap. Looking at getting into reloading. When i had a chat to the boys at blueys they reckon its pretty hard to get components these days. I like to shoot when I'm not hunting aswell and at approx 50-60 bux a box depending what im shooting it gets crazy expensive. Is there much of a saving. Cheers

[@crestcutter2729]

Just what I need to relax i went for a hunt today got honked 1st thing seen 2 more but didn't get a shot off oh well that's hunting keep up the great work HD

So much black berries good effort mate

[@lenlemaic7849]

Who ever invents clothing material that resist blackberry thorns will make a bloody fortune. Or is it already out there. Any comments are welcome. Well done mate you didn't allow the blackberry to beat you.

[@HillDogTV]

@@lenlemaic7849 I'm into some decent pants now days! Works pretty good against the tough scrub an blackberry!!

[@Sako75.7mm08]

Good effort mate fu@#ken black berry! and gorse farm used to be covered in the shit prick of a stuff for getting thru, gave me a laugh with the footage with snippers cutting it, good idea to carry them, cheers for the footage bruz 🏕

Great stuff mate... what binos do u use for ur glassing

[@HillDogTV]

@@bradgallagher3971 12x50 I use these days!

[@mattyv7499]

Nice work mate. I'll be honest with you. Iv had much better luck with the 7mm08 and a good 140gr bonded pill over the heavy options. The heavy pills take up to much case volume, and you suffer on velocity.

[@HillDogTV]

@@mattyv7499 fair call an appreciate ya info. I'm changing bullets again this week, I'll make a video , fill Yas in an see how it performs !!

I'm not sure if youtube have changed their algorithm, but it seems as if they are throwing lots more ads at me as I try to follow your adventure. I have my fingers crossed that they are making you rich.

[@HillDogTV]

@@davidhamilton7780 are you subbed mate? KZbin generally evens out the viewing experience an not flooded with Ads, but if it keeps up just drop a comment saying so an I'll see what I can sort out my end! Thank you mate

I hate blackberry bushes, but I like to eat the berries.
