Tom McDonald Posted July 5, 2011 Report Share Posted July 5, 2011 Hi guys, My name's Tom McDonald and I'm a keen photographer living in Armidale NSW. I'm also a keen bowhunter. Anyway, I'm keen on doing a project focusing on pig hunting in Australia, particularly in the New England region. I'm wondering if there's any body out there (preferably someone with lots of experience) who I can tag along with a few times so I can get started and get some interesting photographs I'm looking at the New England region at this stage, but if there's really no interest I'm happy to travel. I have my R licence if that helps but I wouldn't need it in a SF if I'm not hunting. Cheers, Tom. P.S this is not spam or a scam Quote Link to comment

Tom McDonald Posted July 5, 2011 Author Report Share Posted July 5, 2011 Sorry, I'm definitely after people using dogs to hunt pigs. Tom. Quote Link to comment
Dooley Posted July 5, 2011 Report Share Posted July 5, 2011 G'day Tom, maybe if you chucked up some of your bow hunting pictures or something might help get the trust of a few people on here. Most hunters are very wary of anything like what you are proposing. Quote Link to comment
Tom McDonald Posted July 5, 2011 Author Report Share Posted July 5, 2011 (edited) Dooley, Can do! I'm also a moderator over at Ozbow.net under username TomMcDonald. I have some more pics somewhere but I'm at work at the moment. Tom. Edited July 5, 2011 by Tom McDonald Quote Link to comment
Tom McDonald Posted July 5, 2011 Author Report Share Posted July 5, 2011 Funny, just read someone else was asking a similar thing on the forum a while back. Basically, what I'm after is not to widely publicise the pics, I don't work as a photographer, I do it as a personal form of expression. I'm just interested in life and activities that aren't really mainstream. As I've also said, I'm a keen hunter myself. Anyone who I tag along with will get prints (if the pics are good enough :| ) and of course credit where credit is due. I want to eventually get a book happening, not to promote hunting as such, but to portray a way of life that isn't usually observed by your average joe. Cheers, Tom. Quote Link to comment
Tom McDonald Posted July 5, 2011 Author Report Share Posted July 5, 2011 2 more, all for now. As you can see, I like to eat goat meat Quote Link to comment
fitzy_26 Posted July 5, 2011 Report Share Posted July 5, 2011 What other animals have you got with your bows or guns for that matter!? Quote Link to comment
Tom McDonald Posted July 5, 2011 Author Report Share Posted July 5, 2011 Don't shoot guns mate, but have got a rabbit or 2 and not much else. I go mainly for the goats because it's good meat, good hunting and that's basically what I have access to. I've come close to pigs but they are always too good for me. Quote Link to comment
