Another awesome video Josh!
Unfortunately in Canada, it’s completely outlawed to hunt at night, even for predator control. I’m pretty much apolitical, but this is what happens when a country swings too far to the left.
Your government is allowed to hunt at night - hunt you that is. Shame how gummint is so farked up over there. Getting that way here in Oz too, but not that bad yet.
That’s a shame mate.
Good shooting. Look forward to the next one.
I need to bolt it together yet. was too much footage for one video.
Great night, great result. Thermal is not cheating when you are doing pest control.
Like semi autos, needs an effective operator. It has caused serious problems, making pest warier and livestock wounded & dead, & increased trespass/theft.
That should be one very happy farmer there Josh. Great video again.
Sure was 👌
That was a bloody good night Josh. How could you nealy forget the rabbit. Thanks cobber.🤠
When ya shooting ferals a thermal is not cheating it’s a numbers game and any advantage is a bonus and fair.
I agree. It’s a shame some people can’t see that view.
Another great video! Thanks for giving us a glimpse of what you do & taking care of the invasives! Can't believe you don't have 100k subs. You'll deff get there & beyond. Stay safe out there
Thanks mate. TH-cam doesn’t promote channels like this so they are a bit slow growing. But will see how it goes. It’s growing steadily.
One hell of a night Josh.
2 dogs straight up and then into the pigs.
You've git that new scope dialed in.
Awesome 👌
Thanks Rod. It’s a very nice scope. How are you going with yours?
You’re living the dream my friend
Well done quite a mixed bag onya first night
Thanks mate. Yes very happy
Bloody good night mate. Thanks for taking us along for the ride
No worries mate. 👍
Awesome nights shooting 👍
Another great video, love the way you call in the dogs. I've often wondered what happens to the pigs, it's unfortunate that they are probably diseased, there would have been plenty of meat on that lot. Your new thermal is earning it's keep, the view through the vegetation is amazing.
Yes I still look at the pictures and it makes my mouth water 😂
Very productive night good on ya fella CHEERS
Thanks mate.
Josh you absolutely nailed them, well done! Great seeing you shooting well as always.
Thanks Daniel. You should come up for a shoot again sometime.
That thermal is definitely a game changer!
Super effort. That’s a fair night in anyone’s language.
Thanks mate. 👍
Nice one mate. Thanks for sharing.
No worries mate. 👍
What a night that was excellent mate well done cheers Yogi 👍
Thanks mate.
G'day Mate, I observed in this vid at the 14.47_55 mark there was a young sow with a swollen abdomen, it will keep me up all night trying to analyze and diagnose it. Happy Hunting from an old timer, Thanks
I’ll save you the sleep loss. It was caused from a 55g Hollow Point projectile from my 223😉
@@intothenight1993 Ha Ha Good one, but I'm assuming your assessment may be off. It's my specialty.
@@ianmcgrath7550 well between you and me I’d say it was from internal bleeding as I had done a gut shot on it about 20mins earlier and I came across it lying down when I was looking for the ones I had shot. So had to put another round into it to put it out of its misery.
@@intothenight1993 I sent a photo of the carcass to a Biologist and he said for me "shut up Ian, he shot it." end of story. Thanks Mate.
awesome night gotta be happy with that looking forward to part 2
Thanks mate. Yes definitely. 👍
Never disappoint mate! Great shooting and another sick video 😊
Thanks mate.
No trespassing by invasive species strongly enforced.
Haha yes.
Well done! I just purchased the Thermion DXP-Duo and looking forward to getting out to field to try it out.
Cool! I’d love to have a look through one of them some time and see what they are like. 💪👌
Nice work on the pigs and dogs, that saddle backed dog is big! The noises from the mines is freaky!!
Yes it was literally only a few hundred meters from where I set up camp to one hole. There was a big drag line working a bit further down too which I think was where a lot of the noise was coming from.
Love the soundtrack
Looks like it was so much fun!! I'll have to come out again.🤣
Yes. Although they might not be as easy to find now that the harvesting is finished.
That was so cool buddy! You had pigs laying everywhere! You went through a lot of ammo quick! Thank you for sharing and Good luck with everything my friend!!
Thanks mate. Haha yes I wish we were allowed to have higher than 10 round mags😂
Well done mate.
It all ways makes me laugh when people say using thermals is cheating.
Is using a gun cheating over a bow ?
It is using modern technology to our advantage.
It is jealousy only.
Haha thanks mate.
Some nice shooting Josh, cleaned that mob up nicely, your mate will be happy with that I'm sure.
Thanks mate. Yes he was very happy. 👍
Nice as usual top content cat dogs and pigs that's a good nite
Good one mate enjoyed that👍👍👍👍👍👍👍 wish there was the gear there is now when I was hunting all the time
Thanks mate. Yes it sure makes night hunting a lot easier!
@@intothenight1993 and next to the mine the breeding ground for ferals hahaha. Last one in qld I was at there were that many dogs it wasn’t funny
you sir are an absolute legend love your videos
Thanks mate. 👍
Two dogs down, boom! Good work Josh 👍🏾
Thanks mate.
Good shooting tex. Clean a few up.💥💥💥
Thanks mate. 👍
Incredible night well done. Had a chuckle with the rabbit
Haha he was pretty much begging me to shoot him😂
Great video mate, really like the suspense back ground music on the dogs. Heart rate was raising just watching it!
Haha if I had recorded it with my wireless mic you would have been able to hear my heart racing too😂
Well worth the trip Josh
Definitely 👍
Great night makes doing it really worth while.
Certainly does! 👌
Awesome shoot. 👍👍👍👍
Thanks
One well deserved thumbs up,good all round effort for the night,thanks for the effort on the video,cheers.
Thanks mate and you’re welcome. 👍
Brilliant as always
Thanks
Excellent shooting and a really great video. Looking out for part two
Thanks mate.
That header makes a great shooting stand complete with rests.
Haha yes. Was ideal to have the height advantage so I could see them in the stubble.
I like that torch, very cool you can switch between green and white!
Yes I really like it too.
Brilliant stuff 👍 Can’t wait for part #2
Thanks mate.
2 of the 17 year olds said shit he is spot on lol the bastards were after the birds or eggs or chick's.
Great night
Awesome footage mate. How good does the ruger .223 and the thermion go.. wicked set up and great shooting. Nothing better than a bonus feral cat 🤠💪👍
Thanks mate. Love the setup👌
That's the game breaker. I want one
Game changer!
Panther bush type. Lol 😅😂😂.
Well done Josh fun night that one 🙂
Thanks. It was great fun!
quality as always 😁
Brilliant I was on the edge of my seat in doctors for got were I was lol I said don't you f????? Miss wild life saved had 11 watching I would say ya have more fans. Lol. Ripper stuff.
😂
Got 5 here now I need my bloody ph back lol. Pigs in good nick now full on that rai fell in right areas got avg of 70 to 80 pigs in mobs it is now at crisis point for some farmers not even live stock are safe.
So where's that...out west here near gulgong/ mudgeee it's crazy
@@paulsoutbackgardenaustrali7674 all over.
Best video to date👌🐗💥🦊💥🤙
Thanks mate.
Top shooting!
Thanks mate.
Love it another great video keep up your great work 👏👏👏👏
Thanks mate. Will do👍
Great vid and good shooting
Thanks.
Another great video. You nearly needed a machine gun for the pig’s. haha
Thanks mate.
Haha would get expensive real fast.
Great job josh , it looks like you could do with another couple of shooters there , what we could see of the damage you’ll be kept busy for some time , bonus getting the dogs and cat plus that bit of underground mutton would taste beautiful, keep them falling josh all the best from Tassie
Thanks mate. Yes a few more shooters would have been great. Hopefully can get out there again soon.
Good work.!!
Thanks
Absolute carnage👍
You put in some work on all those feral's. Woot woot.
Great vid mate
Thanks Paul. 👍
Top quality work mate
Thanks mate.
That was an awesome video Josh, well done.
Geoff. UK.
Thanks Geoff👍
Another great video. Keep up the good work.
Thanks. Will do.
Your doing a good job mate
Thanks.
Looks like a block I used to live and hunt on next to Moura mine
Might be.
"I might just get the gun and shoot him". I laughed out loud at that comment. Great work!
Haha I couldn’t believe he was just sitting there after all that shooting! He may as well been begging to be shot😂
That was brilliant, thank you. How do you gather-in all the Pigs and dispose of them so that the Dogs & Dingo's don't gorge themselves on ready made meals - just out of interest, please?
The benefits of thermal and NV, they just can't work out which direction the danger is. Using a white light they'll run away from the light most times. Mate it was a hamburger with the lot night. Great stuff, really enjoy your videos
Plenty run at the light. Often it isn't the light that determines where they run.
And often with thermal they often stay for longer I have found. Wondering why their mates aren’t following.
Thanks mate. Glad you enjoy them. 👍
@@intothenight1993 The pigs & dogs near the mine might have been habituated by the noises. Shooting those furthest away/closest to escape route first can get them to run your way, away from the smack of the bullet hitting, but pigs are often like quail. With deer a couple of incompetents doing runs makes survivors super twitchy (dead ones don't tell tales, one principle behind better pest control), really noticeable with more dickheads getting thermal. Does the same to farmers with all the problems said dickheads cause.
@@johnmead8437 yes I think that was the case. They are so used to all the noise and banging from the mine that noise doesn’t seem to bother them anymore.
Not a bad tally my friend. . . well done. Stay safe bro.
Thanks mate. 👍
Your on fire mate 👍👍
Good job bro great vid good shooting🐗🐗🐗🐕🐕🐇🐈
Thanks.
That last boar was an absolute beast. Imagine that charging at you.
Haha he did a lot of charging but in the wrong direction. Made me charge him a long way😂
Well amazing 🤔 Hunter
Have you ever done a count on how many animals you take a year or even each month? It would be so facinating to see what an impact just you have!
Yes I did do a tally up for the last few years but I had it on a note in my old phone and lost most of it when it died. But I n on now I got 55 cats last year.
But this year to date I’m up to
43 pigs
12 cats
18 foxes
20 dogs.
For control purposes, the impact is measured in what residual population is left, not the tally. A technicality many overlook. Often what some call control is simply shifting them around a bit & making them wary. If it shifts them off the crop long enough for it to be harvested etc , or repeat visits keep numbers below the problem threshold like acceptable calf survival, that is some control. It's not all absolutes. It's not often such a good percentage of pigs encountered are shot as is shown here.
Awsome
It’s good that you show the damage that they do so people can realize how detrimental it is to get rid of them you should actually show more of the damage some of these bleeding hearts up
Snags and spuds, making me hungry just looking at it cooking! Is your rifle a Ruger Rancher?
Stay safe Josh, you are doing a great job, greetings from Ireland
Haha it was making me hungry too. 🤤
Yes it is a Ruger Ranch Rifle with AR mag. They are very good little rifles. I like them so much I got a second one exactly the same.
Thanks mate. You too👍
Amazing videos. 👏
Next time no scope them or use arrows. Land mines tooo?
Lol
A great night's hunting, 17 Ps, 2 Ds, 1 C & 1 R
Great night, I seen you camped up there would have pulled up said hello, do a lot of dog calling and whistling in the district
Good on ya mate. Next time call in. 👍
Epic night Josh. Mate shot a cat about a month ago we weighed it at 13.5kg. Biggest one i've ever seen.
Wow that is a huge cat!!!😳
Would be interesting to see a picture of that, a real trophy. Wonder if it had any of the large breeds ancestry (e.g Maine coon, Bengal etc) or just a super specimen. & how big they get in the wild. It's little wonder some swear they've encountered panthers. On the eastern Isle one pest controller had a newspaper report his black panther kill, someone DNA'ed it & just a big cat, about 11kg.
👍
What's the mine/ quarry in the background?
A coal mine running 24/7
👍👍
Going to need a bigger hat.
What a night, great stuff Joshy
Thanks
Unfortunately Australia has an almost ideal climate and food sources for these invasive species to theive. Good work.
Thanks mate.
The thermals can give you plenty of exercise when you see something a long way off
I’m sure I’m getting fitter from it 😂
Just fantastic Josh. Great to watch, and would be great times for you.
Watching many TH-cam shooting vids, I often find myself muttering FFS shoot the bastard. Never with you mate. I bet you slept like a baby after that.
Haha certainly did. Like a log and didn’t wake up till about 9am🫣😂
Mantap, 👍👍🙏🙏
Thích thế ước gì đất nước mình cũng có nhiều thú rừng mà săn bắn tiếc thay ở nước mình do nạn săn bắn trái phép rồi không có y thưc bảo vệ môi trường nên giờ không còn loài vật nào sinh sống cả, rồi pháp luật cũng không cho người dân sở hữu súng đạn họ sẽ bắt hết nếu ai sở hưu súng săn hoặc súng hơi, nên thấy nước bạn cho sở hữu súng đạn các loại mình chỉ ao ước được 1 lần sở hữu 1 khẩu súng săn hoặc súng hơi bởi vì mình rất đam mê súng
That’s a shame you can’t own guns. I hope it doesn’t get that bad over here.
Mate ya had ya eye in on the pigs !! How’s the old German Shepard colour markings on the dog !! AND pls tell me you put the rabbit in a stew ????? 😮
Thanks mate. Haha no I didn’t feel like cooking anything that fancy.
Those emus were a bit of a surprise.
Yep, the downside of shooting out a paddock full of pigs is going around and finding the buggers later. lol
Yeah it's "cheating" maybe, if you're out there for 'sport'. but when it comes to pest control, it's simply a better tool for the job at hand. That's where a lot of people get hung up. The difference between hunting and pets extermination is a very big change in mindset for some.
Good nights effort all told.
I agree totally mate. One thing I’ll add though so many people that I know will only go for the big boars in a mob and leave the little ones to grow up so they have more to shoot later. But when it comes to feral pest control you shoot as many as possible especially the sows.
@@intothenight1993 yep at 8-9 months old they can be dropping litters of their own.
Great shooting, man. It looks like feral hog is a pest all over the world.
Was that a very short barrel rifle {21:44}, or the cat was very big ?
Yes I think they are a world wide problem. It is a short barrel. It is a Ruger American ranch rifle in 223 with a 16” barrel
@@intothenight1993 For action shooting most people prefer the 16" barrel.
I wonder if you have used the 6.5 mm Grendel.
@@markspc1 no I haven’t.
