Awesome to see another backpack hunt vid mate, as always love the content. A real measure of a true friend to leave the rifle at home to help a mate make it happen. Always a thumbs up from me mate 👍👍
Thanks Fred, I love those little critters. They always trick me thinking I’ve seen deer movement behind a tree. They somehow evade gravity, cool little bird.
Great stag, your intuition was spot on Daz ! Great off hand shooting by old mate too 👍 👌 the setting of the stag antlers behind camp-fire was epic setting. Inspiring
Thanks Jamie, the fire has been relit under Laurie’s belly. He’s been back in there a lot since then. It really pushes me to stay fit and able so that I can keep doing what we love until those later years. Great to see the younger guys soaking it all up. I’m privileged to be in the middle right now and observe it from multiple perspectives.
Awesome videos! I have been watching you recently as I have starting to do more research about deer hunting in the high country. Im a huge novice at deer hunting and have got so much to learn! Went out during Anzac weekend out to Mansfield & Jamieson but no luck unfortunately. Did find a lot of evidence and fresh trail & droppings. Learnt quite a lot being out there and would like to do more. I would really love to try and join a backpack hunt with you guys one and learn from the veterans! That aside, keep up the good content and look forward to learning more from these videos!
Well done ! Between 1972-74 I did several hunts in the Big River area near Eildon & I only got close to hot shit & a sound like a train crashing through the scrub ahead of me. My rifle was a Mod 88 Winchester lever in .308 a good choice in the very thick cover. My mate (who had shot all species of deer in Australia from Hog to Sambar) scored on every hunt I couldn't make with him in this area. I did have some photographic success on Hog on Sunday Island out of season. Amazing how close you can get with just a camera.👍
Hey Daz, love your work mate. Always enjoy keeping up with your hunts. I am the president of the Upper Goulburn Branch of the ADA. Based in Alex. Was curious to see if you would enjoy coming to one of our meetings in 2024 and giving a talk. We are the smallest branch in Vic and hoping we can inspire interest from around the region. Cheers
Thanks Stephen, really appreciate the invite. I do enjoy helping the local clubs out when I can however Alex would prove to far for me with work and family commitments. Paul Boags does a great talk if you haven’t already had him in. Also Rob Fickling from Moroka30 has been doing a lot with the Ada lately as well. Thanks for the thought. Happy hunting guys!
Beautiful bit of work yet again Daz nice to see you back at it.That's a heavy bit of camera kit to be hauling around appreciate the effort I know how much it weighs.
Awesome stuff Daz, I wish my body would allow me to be able to go places like that! Still gonna have a crack at where ever I can go though! This has gotten me pretty keen 🤞👍
Might be a stoopid Q, but if you are out camping for several days and I assume the weather is not freezing as you have shorts on, what do you do with the meat from the deer until you go home? TIA for any answers.
In the winter months like this. Zero overnight temps and high temps around 10 degrees we just hang it in the shade with calico bags on. It can stay like this for a week no problems. There are little to no insects in the colder months so no issues.
Top content as usual sir. Just wondering on some tips on finding Casty's? Ive never seen one in 18 years of stumbling around the high country chasing swamp donkeys!
Hey mate, I’m no expert on the matter here. I only find a few a year. A few points I’ve learned are: wallows are worth a check through the mud. Feeding grounds that deer spend a lot of time in summer (casting season) have higher chances of casts. Make sure the stags are actually in the area your looking at over their casting period. Well used game trails in these areas are usually where I’ll pick up a few
Hey mate, my biggest tip for our conditions is an under quilt. That is a must have. I personally prefer the asym cut hammocks as they get you flatter that a trad cut. I’m still a fan of Hennessy equipment with a hammock gear quilt. Great combo
No we are very selective with the deer we decide to take. Things like position, recovery, shot placement etc are all factors. Re the orange, lucky for us it stands out for hunters but deer see in a different spectrum that bright orange appears like just a shade of green. Hence the natural evolution of the tiger has the same colour scheme and is the ultimate stealth predator to sambar deer

@@IntotheMountains appreciate you coming back to me. PB is a regular and I have a job for him in 24. Will reach out to Rob. thx again.
Great video mate good stuff
Cheers Nicu!
Another Great Video
Thanks mate, was a steep learning curve moving over to a 4K system but worth the effort I reckon
Great hunt and a cracker shot to follow 💪💪👍
Thanks Rob! 👍🏾
Beautiful bit of work yet again Daz nice to see you back at it.That's a heavy bit of camera kit to be hauling around appreciate the effort I know how much it weighs.
Cheers Michael, I don’t know what hurt more, the weight or that I missed pulling focus on that stag
Awesome stuff Daz, I wish my body would allow me to be able to go places like that! Still gonna have a crack at where ever I can go though!
This has gotten me pretty keen 🤞👍
Load up that young fellas pack and take a few more young fellas for good measure. You’ll be right mate.
@@IntotheMountains that's a bloody good idea 💡 👍
yeehaa!! awesome edit man
Cheers Hilldog! Was a great trip. Good stalking country there 👍🏾
Just awesome 👌
Outstanding 👍
Thanks for the vid mate, great edit. Also, I’m happy to shout you a haircut if you need?
Well done guys, cracker trip! Loved the video 🦌🥾✅️
Cheers mate! Was a great trip.
The Mountain Man is back!! Into the mountains we go…
Hahaha cheers Drew. Was feeling out of shape on those first hill climbs. 😅
Hey mate, how do I join on the hunts. Happy just to sit back, learn and record if required.
Might be a stoopid Q, but if you are out camping for several days and I assume the weather is not freezing as you have shorts on, what do you do with the meat from the deer until you go home? TIA for any answers.

great video,, I would really like to know what kind of gaiters Garth was wearing?
He’s got the olive green snake proof ones from Moroka30 there Dave 👍🏾
Good stuff as usual Daz. Where was the Zorali firepit?
I haven’t used one of those myself mate. Might be a big rattle in the pack with that number 😅
Hey mate great work love the videos what rifle are you hunting with mate
Hey Daz,
I'm so keen on getting into hammock camping. Got any gear you can recommend?
Hey mate, my biggest tip for our conditions is an under quilt. That is a must have. I personally prefer the asym cut hammocks as they get you flatter that a trad cut. I’m still a fan of Hennessy equipment with a hammock gear quilt. Great combo
Great video!! Where is this place if you don’t mind me asking
Great vid, is this an ADA hunt?
Hey Mark, no it’s not. 👍🏾
Definately not Kiwi’s ay bro….they go straight through the ‘brooks’, boots on over woolen socks. No fluffin’ around with crocs. 😂
How are you guys storing your meat when you get one that early in the trip?
Just hanging open air with a calico bag mate. I’ll hang if for a week like that with those overnight temps no worries
Ps...where u hunting....deer everywhere here around scone and Tamworth 🦌🦌🦌
Hey Paul, I’ve never been to Tamworth or scone. The majority of hunting I do is in the Victorian alpine national park. 👍🏾
I think with all that orange colour the deer will spot u...ps...do u shoot ALL DEER u see?
No we are very selective with the deer we decide to take. Things like position, recovery, shot placement etc are all factors. Re the orange, lucky for us it stands out for hunters but deer see in a different spectrum that bright orange appears like just a shade of green. Hence the natural evolution of the tiger has the same colour scheme and is the ultimate stealth predator to sambar deer
@@IntotheMountains didn't know that...thnx 4 explaining
wait we got deer here?
Go outside.
super cool vids! me and my girlfriend hunt/trap cats. we love killing those creatures. cheers mate!
