We have been there around the same time if you're referring to the same Bill. There was a dustup about a dozen years ago just before a regional match and the club cancelled at the last minute. Neither of us shot there after that. Last I heard the matches had faded away.

Yep, same time frame. There was a resurgence of sanctioned matches there for awhile after all that ,and I went back and shot a few matches. There were some good guys there, but the tremendous depth of knowledge and experience that used to show up was lost. Good ol MSgt loaned me gear for my first XTC match, paused a match to go bring me the target from my first clean, gave me a nice little souvenir the first (and only) time I beat him offhand. All the FL crew were super people.

Yeah, I really enjoyed HP. Spine injury put me on the sidelines.

Calling the line for a Garand match Bill is hosting tomorrow. That's as close as I get anymore.
 
You got "Australian Elk" ? ........ :unsure: :ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO: :rolleyes::sneaky::ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO:

Water Valley Game Reserve, South Australia, Australia


Situated in the South East of South Australia approximately four hours from Adelaide. This unique private property has a hunting area of over 400 square kilometres, making it one of the biggest in the southern hemisphere.

All Deer species in Australia are to be found in very good numbers, these being Chital, Fallow, Hog, Red, Rusa and Sambar Deer. The quality of trophy animals available is second to none, and clients have collected many world-class trophies. The high population of trophy animals combined with extensive areas of scrubland ensures that many trophy class animals survive each year - and just get bigger. It is not uncommon to find trophies having died of old age!

$6k for a sambar stag. Fuck that. Go for a good walk in the bush anywhere in northern vic and you’ll bump one.

Saying that, these are from the last sambar stag we shot, was about 9 years old and something like 220kg. Had one functioning tooth left. Clearly shot him when he was running across the open from the sambar retirement village.

I can honestly say that I too had a prescription for alcohol for when I lived at the Veterans Hospital here in Winnipeg. There's a bar in there, that is open every Friday. The only patients who CAN order a drink are those who've been given a prescription from their attending doctor/specialist allowing such. That way there is no interaction/conflict with their prescribed meds. True Story.
