Zebra's Sambar hunting Adventures(stags, stags, stags but) Deer hunting Australia

Not how you ever plan a hunt to end. Savv does a great job getting out of the bush despite being in considerable pain.
Although we had to pull the pin on this hunt early, we managed to see quite a few deer and a few handy stags.

Thanks for another video. Would it be possible for you to shown a video how you look at terrains and areas in search of new hunting grounds? Cheers.

[@ZebrasSambarhuntingAdventures]

Thanks for your comment 👍 how I go about finding areas to hunt is covered in my Online Sambar hunting course.

Another good video Zeb Just goes to show that you must be match fit I always say to people heading to Victoria after sambar find the biggest hills in your area and start walking them You just gotta start training weeks out both with walking and light weight training because just the amount of upper body strength that you use Victorian hills one metre forward equal one metre up a lot of the time Some days just hard work

Fitness allows you to enjoy your hunt. Without it, it's just painful. Thanks for your comment Shane

[@theowenssailingdiary5239]

I can see clients doing a bit of extra training after this, if for nothing else but to avoid embarrassment. Fear is a motivator!! Poor bugger. Fact is, a lot of people will pull up really really sore after a tough climb. Sometimes even sorer on the 3rd day. Very stiff boots can transfer some of that load away from calves and achiles ect (although, that load can end up in the quads /glutes and hamstrings). I wonder if Savv just got really sore? Good that you spoke about the elevation Zeb! Thats a fair day out for most.

[@ZebrasSambarhuntingAdventures]

Yeah, I don't think it was muscle tear or anything like that. Lower legs get smashed with a load on that you're not used to in steep country. The following client was anxious he wasn't fit enough, but he made it through without issue. I've found it's a mix of fitness with my clients. Some look fit, and they are and others I doubt on first impressions, but then I'm surprised in the bush with their ability to get around. Nearly everyone slows me down to their pace, which can be a challenge for me to get them where we need to be at certain times of the day. All part of being a hunting guide 😀 The client that keeps up to me or very close are usually the ones that take home a deer. The others get to see the deer they'd want, but their fitness doesn't allow us to go after them. Nearly every client underestimates their ability to cover ground in big country, mainly because they've never tried. I've pushed a few of them to the limits to get in on stags and they've all been amazed at what they have achieved. Hopefully, no one is embarrassed, but yeah, I think this video may change a few potential clients' minds on how fit they are. I have river country that is suitable for all fitness levels but most want the big open country. Being honest is the key.

Where are you hunting? I’m looking to get into sambar hunting with my dad and was wondering if you have any tips or recommendations of places to hunt. (I live in Melbourne)

[@ZebrasSambarhuntingAdventures]

Vic Alpine wilderness mate. I have a bunch of ways you can learn from me. Watch all my vids on YT is tge easiest. Join my Patreon or buy my Online Sambar hunting course. Finally you can come with me on a hunter education course or guided hunt. I have a lot to offer 👍

[@complex4430]

Awesome, thank you. I might save some money up and buy your course. Also, do you hunt on private property or on public land? And if public land, what’s the park called (it’s fine if you’d rather not share).

[@stevemavroudis]

Good on you for giving your clients every chance possible but you definitely need a decent level of fitness to accomplish it

[@ZebrasSambarhuntingAdventures]

Fitness can be the difference between enjoying your hunt or praying for it to be over without injury. Mental fitness plays a massive role as well and lucky for me Savv had it in him to push through the pain to get out. 💪

[@justinliv2322]

Great effort and still an amazing hunt ! Keep up the work mate, love the content , wish I can get stuck in some more hunts 😅 Not sure sure if you answer these types of questions, but what are your thoughts/experiences hunting sambar during early November?

[@FishandHunt]

I've found that the best way to train for mountain hunting is by going mountain hunting. Another cool video thanks Zeb 👍🏻

[@ZebrasSambarhuntingAdventures]

@FishandHunt must be an echo in the room 😀 don't know how many times I've said those exact words. Unfortunately, most of my clients are booking with me because of the lack of time they have to hunt.

[@ZebrasSambarhuntingAdventures]

@user-bx4xw5ly2s have a similar experience with a VFL footballer. Sport fit but the hills punished him 😀
