  1. you got a website i can look up about these tours. and what is it even hard going to the paid properties i thought it would of been easy pay for how ever long and go hunt ?

    Paid properties easy to get onto, free private access hard.

    R licence will be your cheapest easiest method. Once you pay your initial costs for the year it's then only your travel, hunting equipment and refreshment expenses after that.

  2. seems like a pretty good start some where to hunt. whats you exp with hunting state forests is it worth it and also do you know of any aho's for doggers ?

    Could not tell you what the forests are like to hunt , I'm not in nsw. You will need to contend with other hunters. Maybe do some research and Getting out in the field and learning hands on a bit. More chance of teeing up someone to take you in a state forest as private blocks are hard to get and people tend to keep them close to their chest.

    An Aho for doggers is the Australian Pig Doggers and Hunters association (APDHA)

    AnOther option for properties is here http://www.westernhunting.com.au

  3. In regards to validating my quality of person. I find it a little difficult to do so to a bunch of people whose names I dont even know. For now I am happy to keep conversations going over emails and phone yarns with anyone particularly keen.

    Yet your expecting us to take you to our own private hunting areas and share with you our pastime.

    Here, my name is mick fletcher.

    I am based in the NT. I am a Capricorn and like long walks on the beach. I have not touched a drop of alcohol in the last 5 minutes and it's been years since my last confession.

    I have nothing about my hunting to hide and can be seen in such publications such as wild boar Australia and on issues of the pig hunting DVD. I also have no hidden agendas but distrust those who are not truthful about themselves as they tend to always have hidden motives.

    There, it's easy see.

  4. Hi Mick, While I dont know the journo that did the story and the circumstances around how they worked with people it you said it yourself dickheads in all circles wthat bring down the majority....  I have to say though as a viewer that while it ended with the push by politiicans in NSW to ban the practice, I thought  the opening of the piece showed the need for feral pig hunting as a culling practice, the first interview with the cane farmer highlighted that really well. I can understand the distrust that exists amongst hunters, I spose for anyone that takes me out I hope to be taken on my individual merit as a human first and a photographer second. C

     

    Might i add that never once in the ABC report on the pig comp did it mention that $25000 was raised and donated all to charities and schools in the local area.

    Now if that isnt worth a mention i dont know what is. It was a stitch up from the word go, and it just seems a bit coincidental that a few other blokes such as yourself have been asking other hunters to tag along for photos for the same reasons such as yourself and again, the very similar reason to the 7.30 report.

    Now i am sure if you contact the APDHA we could provide you some information you may find handy, and if its feral animal impact on farming then i suggest contacting a farming association and get out on the ground around the paddocks with a cocky and let them show you the damage first hand.
