Good advice. I've hunted sambar all year round for 43 years. I can say I've experienced many situations over that time, some pretty scary and some pretty stupid in hindsight. First thing I tell any new hunter is learn how to use a map and compass proficiently and always take them, plus always take your pack with emergency gear in it ,you never know when a night out will be necessary..lf hunting a new area I'll laminate a map of the area to keep in my pack, I'll note the main river flow direction and feeder creek direction. I attach my firearms licence,game licence and compass together with a lanyard so I'll always have them. Never have I trusted anything battery powered to not at some stage to die, especially in alpine conditions.something as simple as a slip and sprained ankle can put you in a deadly situation in overnight alpine temperatures. Call me old but I feel naked without my daypack of gear. Ive gone through it a thousand times trying to reduce weight, but everything always goes back in. Don't risk it people.

Great video and topic mate. Recently hunted a new spot in thick Tassie bush, rocky and hilly in mid winter. Hunted till last light, looked at GPS to track back, accidentally turned the display to the brightest and battery drained. Managed to walk out as I knew I had to keep the ridge on my left, took me hours in the dark. If it wasn’t for my headlamp it would have been impossible to walk due to terrain. Incidentally I actually walked past my ute multiple times in the lush bush. As hunters and bush walkers in remote areas we all take considerable risk, that’s ok but it must be calculated and not reckless. 1. I try to always be prepared and equipped to stay in place. That means even on short day hunts as that’s where most people get in trouble. I have warm clothing, enough water, basic first aid and anything I need to survive a night in place. Like space blankets, means of lighting a fire. I’m always thinking what if I break a leg, can I survive the weather conditions until help arrives. 2. Secondary means of navigation / spare gps battery and second head lamp/lights and batteries. Compass/map is great but a lot of people don’t know how to use them sadly. 3. I carry a PLB, my contacts know that I will only use that in a life threatening or medical emergency not because I got navigationally challenged. It means I require help asap, no exceptions. A basic whistle is also a great addition to carry, if someone is out looking for you, sounds travels and don’t require a lot of energy to blow the hell out of it. You raise so many good points in your video, just the fact you are talking about it shows you are making all the right choices which will aid you in future misadventures. Stay safe legend and happy hunting. 👍

Well done mate, happy to listen to more of these. I have had a few close wake up calls and constantly making me review safety: 1. Put down bag with everything in it to stalk an animal in summer and lost my bag. No water with 600m elevation to climb (found The bag after some panic searching) 2. Hunting flat country close to dark and gps Avenza and inreach stopped working due to heavy trees and cloud cover and luckily found a road 3. Fog. Everything stopped working (Avenza and inreach) 4. Inreach update. There was an update and the gps reset and lost my waypoints. Had to follow ridgelines back to camp and luckily chose the correct ones to take

Great video Profty. As an emergency services specialist rescue operator and from a military background myself you are right. No one is immune to failure in the bush. The high country is so vast and dense it takes real skill to navigate it. Even simple hunts in well tracked forests can go pair shaped. I often feel like having redundancy on redundancy is burdensome and a waste. But as I was told by an old wise chief once, you don’t need it until you do.

Good advice mate. The best thing to do in situations like these is to make camp and wait it out. Either the night or the weather. But so many of us find it hard to stop when we have time pressures. The world we live in dictates we have to be on a time schedule. Weather its getting back to work the next day or whatever. But like you said its better to arrive late than not at all.

Thanks Profty. I carry spare Garmin batteries and don't trust my phone (Andriod calibration issues). Lately been using my compass and land marks a lot more as sick of relying on battery banks on long trips. Great summary. If in doubt take the long way not the quick dodgey way. And hunker down and camp if yout running late/geographically embarassed). The garmins rely on three satellites so sometimes messages take time to send and receive.

Great vid Profty. Agree entirely with what you say re tech. My inReach tried to update itself in the middle of the forest (despite me testing it before heading out). Essentially locked me out of the app because I couldn't 'accept' the new license agreement (reception was required). I always take a compass now. But I reckon that's a pretty big design flaw from Garmin even if it was something I did. When I needed it I couldn't use it. I couldn't gaf about the license agreement all I needed was the map.

Mate I had the same thing happen to me when I got lost. Satellite imaged my way in before I got there. Cross a river where I know I could. Pushed up a hill directly west where I wanted to hunt. After finishing my hunt and deciding to head back I made my way back down to hit the river and went right instead of left. Walked for 45 mins thinking where I crossed is just around the bend. Light fading I decided to cross at the next log that was across the river and head back the Way I came. I had plenty of water but not much food. Sun was setting and I was exhausted. It was thick. Had to push up parts to follow the river. I sat down and ate the last of my food. Set a game plan of if I couldn’t find where I crossed I would head directly west again and I would hit private property and a road in about 5km as the crow flys. I got up walked all of 10m and seen the log I originally crossed. Felt so relived. Still had 5km back to the car but was along fire roads. Next day bought a really good gps.
