Australian Hunter

Australia's favourite hunting magazine
Welcome to Australian Hunter 33.
First up in this edition of Australia’s favourite hunting magazine, Rob Murton takes us to his home state of South Australia to hunt some tough old billy-goats. Experienced hunter Warren McKay, who is featured on our cover, then reminisces about hunting his first double-six red deer.
David Bremstaller shares some budgeting tips to keep us hunting through these tough economic times, while in Camp Kitchen, we show you how to smoke game meats and make your own venison jerky.
John Wilkes opens the lid on the intriguing life of professional hunters in Africa and what it takes to become one. As you will read, it’s not just about being an accurate shooter and wanting to hunt the Big Five animals of Africa - it’s an expensive and difficult slog, but no doubt a rewarding one for those who make it.
Finally, don’t forget to enter our competitions for your chance to win a Wolf-Eyes torch and Kizlyar camo outdoor package - and until next time, good reading and good hunting!
