5 days backpacking in the Victorian high country in search of mature Sambar stags. With blairy taking a nice stag on the first day, and spotting a few other stags we knew that this trip would turn out alright.

Good call that Stag is still maturing - he will be awesome in a couple of years. It’s great to see an ethical hunter make a sustainable decision. Too often some blokes just can’t help but pull the trigger on a good breeding animal. QDM and we all benefit. Love ya work
Yeah hopefully he can live that long. Guess only time will tell.
Love ya work Maso!
Cheers mate.👍
Nice work, good to see a few around, pressure would have dropped off since last year over summer. We only saw a hind and small stag last time we were there. Then nothing but rubbish left by others on the other side of the river. So we carried more out just not what we hoped to carry out.
Yeah always seem to be able to find hinds and small stags in there. That’s disappointing about the rubbish good work for cleaning it up 👍👍
@@intothehighcountry I don’t get the mentality. We could possibly lose access and hunting in these pristine environments so why do we give those that want to close access any ammunition.
@@johnmac6226 no idea, some people just don’t care.
Great effort mate, you got to the miles if you want the smiles. Keep it up cheers 🍻
Cheers mate Certainly do👍
Nice one mate
Cheers mate 👍
Thanks for sharing!
Thanks for watching👍
@@intothehighcountry I just started sharing my vids… youtube.com/@babahunts?feature=shared
Beautiful footage mate! Its a shame the stag never showed the next morning, but at least the girls came out and put on a show. Very nice work
Thanks for the comment, Yeah definitely would have been good to just watch him the following morning but that’s sambar hunting I guess. Yeah the hinds definitely were out and about feeding so that keeps you entertained.
Love the authenticity mate, too many new hunters get sucked into the youtube trap and have expectations of dropping stags every time they step in the bush, because thats all they see. Great video! Looks like a successful trip
Appreciate the comment mate, yeah I guess every trip is successful if you take something away from it not just shooting something
Enjoying your the adventure are you hunting solo looking to go but not to sure were to start
Hey mate glad you’re enjoying the content, I just done my first solo backpack hunt but usually go on trips with mates but a lot of the time hunt solo. Then just meet up at the end of the day. Hunting with a mate is always a good way to start out
Hey mate great video! Lately just been following your journey and loved every bit of it! Is that places you went to near Howqua area and towards tobacco flats? Cheers
Hey mate glad you’re enjoying it, na none of the areas I hunt are that way.
@@intothehighcountry Thanks for the reply mate! I'm new to deer hunting here in Vic, places I've mentioned do you think are decent places? I'd assume anywhere is good really, I'm just a novice in this sort of stuff but putting in the time and getting the hours in to learn is the only way! cheers.
@@CarrMichaelQuitay honestly I haven’t hunted that way really at all, but I know there’s deer around that area. I guess my advice to guys starting out is, pick an area walk a lot to begin with, walk a big river flat or ridgeline and just try and take in as much sign as possible- rubs, droppings, foot prints, wallows, game trails food sources ect, take notes of when you are seeing sign or even deer and go from there. Be sure to keep thermals and wind in your face the best you can. Hope that helps a little.
@@intothehighcountry Mate, appreciate the info & advice! I will definitely put the hours in!
I thought it would have been a given, that you would harvest the hind quarters, back steaks, eye fillets & the heart. Seems somewhat wasteful otherwise. Cheers for the video & to your success. 🍻😎
I was a fair way from the car. With a buck in this condition I can’t imagine the meat was going to be much better than for dog meat. Maybe it is a waste but the farmer up there just shoots them and leaves them so guess taking some is better then none. Cheers for the comment👍👍
I once saw a Murray Cod suck a fallow deer fawn off the edge of a dam, incredible stuff!
Well done mate
Cheers👍
Great Buck! Thanks for the video mate As a new stalker, It’s always interesting to hear and see your Hunts, thoughts and strategies mate. Cheers and Well Done! 👍🏻
Glad you enjoyed it mate, cheers
What snake?
Great video mate. Always good watching the young ones move around.
Cheers mate👍
Thanks for the edit cob! When’s the next ep coming out?
Hopefully soon, I’ve got a couple of fallow hunts coming up doing a couple of fox hunts aswell so I’ll get some footage from them and put it together
@@intothehighcountry bloody sensational mate, good luck!
Legend great video mate
Cheers mate appreciate it
Scope cover is a great idea. Where did you find that one?
It’s just a Bushbuck one
The grub you guys are eating up the scrub is next level mate 👌 found a few critters, some hard going in that one spot mate
We sat there wondering why we even bother packing in and eating dehydrated foods when you can have roast for tea 🤣
@@intothehighcountry your getting soft 😆
😂😂 you reckon just put a roast in the pack?
Great animal mate. Awesome tops on him.
Yeah certainly does. Would love to catch up with him this year
Great stag. Wow. Nice simple video man😊
Cheers mate
Thumper cheers for sharing mate👌🏻
Great video
Epic vid mate! Great toons too👌🏽
Cheers mate
Great video mate 👌
Cheers. Appreciate it
Another great trip boys, pity about that stag but that’s hunting, some nice trout, fire , living the dream ,top vid , cheers 🐻
Cheers mate, was an awesome trip
Lure fishing with 2 treble hooks causes significant damage to trout and in many cases released fish will die from hook injuries to noses, eyes, tongues, bodies and gills.... I reckon get into fly fishing with a single barbless hook ...
I am planning to go to single hooks just for better hook ups. These fish 100% would survive. I’ve fished this river for years and it’s only getting better. Would love to eventually go to fly fishing though
Great video mate 👍
Cheers mate
Great vid mate 👍 i felt those hooks in ya 😬 ouch ! Nice stag to pity you didn’t catch up with him, next time 🤞.
Cheers mate, I was feeling those hooks an hour after they were out aswell 🤣 2 years in a row for that stag so hopefully next year🤞
Really great stuff guys - I loved every moment of the vid. You know, what you are doing is real living away from the phoney world we have created for ourselves. Everyone should have the experience of self reliance in the high country - the world would be a better place
You are spot on there👍
Good to see you back in the bush , great footage beautiful country wish I was there
This is almost like a religious experience. Some of the photography and scenery especially those glassing shots are breathtaking
Certainly is an awesome place, and awesome scenery
Good to see your out again falla great content as always ,,, I wanna go on my first hike hunt next yr and starting to prep for it now, just thought I'd ask ,what sleeping equipment do you boys use ,matts tent etc cheers bloke
Cheers appreciate it. Bushbuck 2p tent and bushbuck caldus sleeping bag I’ve got a video on all the stuff I’m using 👍
Thanks for the content and keep up the good work! What river were you fishing in?
Cheers Appreciate it. Might try keep the area off social media so not every man and his dog goes up there but I’m sure someone might recognise it and tell you👍
Hey man, what'd you use to produce the grunt calls?
Hey mate, it’s an AJ electronic caller
Any big feral cats?
Na haven’t seen any wild cats up there
There would be one or three people who might disagree with that name... no such thing as a purebred dingo in those areas anymore 😅
There are proven studies recently that prove there are still pure alpine dingos. These have all the characteristics of dingos
Of no doubt, but I believe the running joke is that they look exactly the same as wild dogs from the same regions. Given the methods by the DNA has been collected over the years and the various programs and studies that have tried to definitively prove or disprove the heredity, I'm going with the "probably some dingoes, but also a whole bunch of wild dogs or hybrids" position😁 @@intothehighcountry
Studies by WHOM ?@@intothehighcountry
@@williecosgrove there are a few studies that have come back I’ve read the articles. Not sure whos conducting the testing
I was waiting for the gun shot 🤙
Haha na not up there
Is this filmed up nunniong way
Na not close to there
@@intothehighcountry ok
300 rum must be hard on the shoulder in a light riffle ? Nice stag btw
Cheers mate👍 yeah it has a bit of a kick to it. Not to bad for 1 or 2 shots but after that you feel it a bit
Frothing the music inspiration from Into The Wild mate!!
One of my favourite movies!
I have never hunted Victoria and trying to do some research. I am going to try Dartmouth in a couple of weeks from the boat but it seems very thick bush around there. Could you offer some advice where to find some more open country like that to glass. Is it certain regions only or does it open up everywhere above a certain altitude etc.
Hey mate, unfortunately I’ve never hunted Dartmouth, it’s on the list to do hopefully next year. You can find open areas in a lot of places but this sort of stuff is higher altitude
Truley Amazing!
literally SOME OF THE BEST Sambar deer TC Footage I've ever seen. Mega
Cheers mate appreciate that!
What part of vic is this in if you don’t mind me asking
South Gippsland
Great stuff mate. Love the fair chase rule. 😊
Cheers mate
Great video guys 👍
I’m sure I hunt on the same property owner name Steve?
Hey mate, do you have instagram? If so flick me a message on there
Nice stag in there
Yeah he’s very neat
