Maybe that's my secret 🤫

@@ZebrasSambarhuntingAdventures thinking of your safety mate 😄

Ha yeah, got it done though 💪

Thanks Craig appreciate your support mate 💪

Thanks for you comment Colin, I hope I can help the hunting community in some small way with showing people the respect I have for the animals we hunt and how we use and appreciate the bush they live in.

That Sako ammo does the job well from all accounts. I wouldn't say the 308w is more effective than a 338wm, maybe easier to manage resulting in being more effective.

Thanks Simon 👍 glad you enjoyed the content 😀

Cheers mate, NZ is on my 2025 list maybe Vic will be on yours 😉

Thanks Michael, you can't help but love Sambar when you hunt them for as long and as often as I do.

Thanks mate 👍

Your to kind Mark 😇

Thank you! Cheers TJ

For those reasons you will find your peace in the bush 💪

Thanks for watching and taking the time to respond 🙂

Yeah I think we are behind in the times here a bit. Hopefully I can help that turn around

Hey John, do we know each other ? Strong statement, I'm assuming you hunt similar areas to where I do ? What part of monetising hunting underminds the fair chase ? Is it my clients have an unfair advantage of having me by their side ? Everything about my business is fair chase and ethical. Public land is just that, free for the public to use, including for businesses that operate within them. How would me offering drop hunts ruin a keen hunters hard work ? My clients are but men, human not deer killing machines 🤷 are you also in such strong disagreement of me guiding on public land? Interested to hear your response

can't see why your disappointment Ted. it's no different to hunting schools on how to. Zebra has done the work.and ita.nothing more than helping g with a gps mark for fishing spot. the paid part is the virtual guide only and food and taxi service. not to mention culling g and helicopter eradication. if your going to get mad then get mad at the government who sells you hunting licenses firearms licences and taxes the bum from your but then turns around with your tax dollars and culls in those areas.

@timmyanderson1576 hey Tim, I like the way you put that. Like you said, your paying for the service of the taxi service, gps hire and having me on call to help you if needed. Not actually the hunting, that's all on the client.

@@timmyanderson1576 he can be upset at both. How do you know he’s not upset (like most of us) about extra tax and the way the culling is done.

@RoryBoyd-dw1xl I don't but it's a bigger issue than paying for someone's experience, preparation, travel, preprep or knowledge. it's like cake making...plenty of nailed it pics

Cheers Peter 🍻

Thanks Nobby 👍

Hey thanks for your extended feedback 😀 can you elaborate on you would want more from my guided hunts? Is it the food ? The camping set up ? I totally get your idea with future proofing my business with private land hunting but would you believe 99.99% of my past clients wouldn't want a private land hunt. The experience is worlds apart. If you just want a trophy private land is the go, for an adventure you need the space public land provides. I believe by running my business on public land shows the governing body's there is a real market for hunting in Victoria and is helping more than someone offering a guided hunt on private land that requires nothing from parks or the like. Unfortunately I'm the only one running a hunting business in Victoria with the appropriate tour guide licence, if more were doing it surely that would be a good thing for hunting. I see it may go my way one day where you will have to book with a licensed operator to hunt public land ? Cheers for your feedback 👍

@@ZebrasSambarhuntingAdventures You will have to pardon my business brain - still hasn't switched off.. In essence , it is about what you are offering your clients that they cannot provide themselves. What represents value for them? Granted, you have hunting experience but what else? What makes it special? I am not criticising your methodology and I have no doubt you have happy customers. If it works for them and you that is great. My expectations may be different. As to the assertion that most of your clients prefer to hunt of public land, me too. Come visit the Grampians with me and I will show you all the places I use to be able to camp and now cannot. Perhaps in exchange you can point out the land in the proposed extension of the great Forest NP that you ( and me) may be excluded from. The writing is on the wall.

@percyveer5974 if your asking what makes my drop hunts special? You will have me drop you off in an area I know holds deer, with a gps loaded with points of interest, you'll get a verbal run-down on the area and how to hunt it. You'll have a point of contact if anything goes wrong or you have success (via inreach) you can hire gear, i can organise your food, I can pick you up from the airport and even hire you a rifle. You could basically fly in with your camos on and nothing else, hunt and then fly home. Basically in a nut shell my clients are paying for me to organise their hunt.

Thanks Dan 👌

P.S Ripper Stag. 30?

Not quite 😀

Cheers mate for your feedback and encouragement 👍

@@ZebrasSambarhuntingAdventures Next time 🤙🏻

@@FishandHunt there's always next time 😁

Thanks Archie

I sure did, 2 actually. They preformed exactly like advertised. 100% retention with 2x expansion with excellent penetration

Just under 30"

For some time isn't available for the "fun" part of scouting. For example a busy business owner from interstate has maybe 1 or 2 trips a year to come down and hunt. Taking a stab at were to go from information gathered up to 12mths prior is absolutely a waste of time. Why is it fine for fishing but not for hunting ?

This kind of assisted self-guided hunting on public land is common in many countries around the world. Australia is behind the times. I'm an expat Kiwi and an experienced Red & Fallow hunter living in NSW. I've also hunted Sambar in Victoria a few times. I could rock out in my local area tomorrow and have a better than average chance of turning up an animal of either species because I'm hunting them both regularly, I understand their habits well after nearly 40 years hunting them, I have historical and seasonal knowledge of my local area and I'm running trail cameras. On the other hand I could also head to Victoria for the only 7 days this year that I have time available to do that and, despite a lot of experience and general deer hunting knowledge, I might spend 5 days and 3 different site moves before I start getting into some productive area leaving me 2 days to make it happen. Or I could engage Zeb, support an Australian small business having a go, get put into a productive zone with some local knowledge of the area, get a bit more Sambar knowledge from a guy who's been hunting them for as long as I've been hunting Reds and give myself 6 days to make it happen. Personally I'd be way more inclined to consider doing this than a full guided hunt and a lot of other time poor but experienced people would be to. I can't really see what your issue is?

@@FishandHunt thanks mate that's a great explanation of what I'm trying to cater for 💪

@@ZebrasSambarhuntingAdventures It's not rocket science 😉

@@ZebrasSambarhuntingAdventures I understand that and I believe it’s all part of it. I don’t believe it’s right for fishing either. I dont think you’ll get mainly interstate businessmen. I think you’ll mainly get people that don’t want to do work and just want the result. Which is fine. I’m not having a go mate, you asked what we thought and I’m giving you my view.

Thanks Dazza 👍

Great to hear your feedback mate thanks 😊

Thanks Tatt 👍

Good one Daniel 👍 get to NZ mate you'll have a ball. I'm heading over next year myself

Awesome thanks for watching and taking the time to comment 👍

It won't matter what your equipment of choice is for these hunts. But that will be a consideration as to which area I suggest would suit.

Thanks for your feedback mate 👍

Care to share which projectiles you have managed to get to shoot sub moa ?

Appreciate that David 😁

Hey mate, we usually have a uhf call in every hour when apart. The gadget on my wrist is a remote for my Gopro.

😬 not sure mine and Mark's are fresh ? I'm in need of a new cap. Thanks for watching

@@ZebrasSambarhuntingAdventures HAHA. Didn’t want to come straight out and say it. 🤣 But I do see a lot of Aussie hunting content without blaze orange which is disappointing as that is where a lot of new hunters are ‘learning’ the trade. 👍

@@michaelwhipps8642 got to get away from the "lucky" hat syndrome 😂

Cheers Brian 🍻

Hey mate its a Maisey Varimax brake not a tuner

Great antlers wasn't it

I agree Scott but they won't leave their offices in the city to come and look

@@ZebrasSambarhuntingAdventures Just get them in the car take them up the high country and on the way back drop into the gun expo every gun shop you can think of and they might go o shit not many deer but a lot of people hunting and spending money on it better re think what we are doing 😂🤣

@scottthompson9220 not a bad idea but won't change their minds imo.

Some of it was

Common from my experience

Thanks Colin 👍

Thanks Craig, I appreciate your time to comment 👍

It's a Leupold vx3hd 2.5-8x36 cds

I was taught by my Dad and he pumped it into me not to shoot the hinds as they were the breeders. Different thinking

Thanks for your support Simon 💪

It is easily accessible I suppose

Yeah it is and very famous. It gets a lot of attention. Last time I was there I couldn’t believe the foot traffic , old camps and some rubbish 😡

@RoryBoyd-dw1xl yeah I've cleaned up my share of rubbish there over the years

Do you find that taking clients into certain spots on public land that it brings more attention to the area the area?

Get into em mate they are awesome 👌
