Ep. 16 Backpack hunt; Before and After - Rick Bichel

Rick is a NSW based Sambar hunter but had not undertaken a multi-day backpack hunt - until now. Rick and I chatted about gear and prep before the hunt and then caught up after the hunt to break down what worked and what he might change for the next one. Rick is also prepping for a NZ trip later this year. Rick is also heavily involved in mental health first aid in his workplace and we chat a bit about the benefits of hunting and 'greenspace' to our mental health. Rick also runs a Facebook group 'NSW Sambar Hunters' that has over 3500 members and growing. They have some merch and run education and hunt events. Reach out to Rick if you're interested; @tailsntrails8 or via FB. I would also ask you to support the 2024 podcast partners; Skeleton Optics - @skeletonoptics_au ⁠⁠https://www.skeletonoptics.com.au/⁠⁠ On Track Meals - @on_track_meals ⁠⁠https://ontrackmeals.com/⁠⁠ Anyone with ideas for future episodes, or just a chat around backcountry/backpack hunting  - please feel free to reach out.  @australian_hunting_backcountry [email protected] Thanks for listening - look after yourselves and your mates.
