Ian makes a startling discovery about his new, favourite bino harness. The guys talk about the importance of quality gear. Mark gives an update of his Buffalo burgers, his Buff skull trophy preparation and the benefits of maceration.
Jono shows off his Biltong machine. The guys debate the value of a good sous vide. Together they figure out what exactly is a gaucho, and of course talk about what’s next on the hunting and fishing calendar…
Welcome to Blah, Blah, Blah Round 4
