Pracman Posted May 12, 2009 Report Share Posted May 12, 2009 Hi there,I'm fairly new to hunting and am currently in the process of obtaining my firearms licence. I'm wanting to hunt on crown land and state forests but have found it very dificult to get any good info on where exactly to go. where is a good place to start things off? If anyone knows of a good place to go for rabbits/foxes/goats please let me know as I'm keen to get back out there as soon as I've got the greenlight. Cheers! Hi Roar Deer hunting maps on the DSE website give you a bit of a guide. Have a look at http://www.dse.vic.gov.au/DSE/nrenrt.nsf/L...A256DEA00241987 or http://www.dse.vic.gov.au/DSE/nrenrt.nsf/c...750023D375?open for non deer game Farms are great for foxes and rabbits but you have to spend the time to find people who will allow you to shoot on there property. The SSAA and field and game would be good clubs for general hunting and tha Australian Deer Association for Deer. MInd you deer hunting is the TOUGH and Hard hunting where you may not shoot a bullet more than a few times a year. If you want more action Rabbits and Foxes are the go.

Pracman Posted May 12, 2009 Report Share Posted May 12, 2009 HI from tac im still trying to bag a deer this could be the year???????? Good luck GTAC I got my second two weeks ago. About twenty - thirty days stalking with 2 deer in the bag now. It is hard work, Seeing sign is great- getting Warm, Getting Honked is cool- getting hotter but when you get yours the feeling is outstanding. Good Luck James aka Pracman ADA Melb branch.

Duncs Posted June 10, 2009 Report Share Posted June 10, 2009 Hi all, I'm a newly-returned hunter. I used to go rabbit hunting with my dad when I was a kid and have recently returned to the shooting sports after about a 25 year break! A friend took me deer hunting a little while ago and now I'm hooked. So I'm looking to pick up some tips, etc, from all of you. Duncs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
