Inside this edition the pests and game extend to rabbits, wild dogs, goats, boars, bucks and bantengs. Our epic guided hunt for bantengs, or ‘tembadau’, takes us deep into Garig Gunak National Park in the Northern Territory. Although a feral pest, this reclusive bovine supported a majestic and challenging hunt on the Cobourg Peninsula. From the bush to the beach, we step foot on truly uninhabited land for a unique expedition, including intriguing encounters with the wild Timor ponies shadowing parts of the journey. And while Australia offers fantastic hunting opportunities like the tembadau, there are also exciting prospects abroad. However, there’s a lot more to consider for a trip. From paperwork to packing and participation, we provide a ‘game plan’ for that overseas hunt you’ve always dreamed about, backing it up with a longed-for elk hunt in British Columbia on horseback! Accompanying our diverse hunting stories, we cover culling animals, whether native or feral, and being equipped as a first responder in bush emergencies. Furthermore, we test-run advanced handheld UHF CB radios from GME, to keep communication ‘alive’ out hunting, and feature a range of rifles, scopes, ammo and other useful gear, plus tasty recipes for rabbit and venison. With our 90th edition doubling the prizes, there’s plenty of awesome kit up for grabs!
