In this episode I am joined by Western Australian bowhunter Troy Morris to discuss all things bowhunting camels!
Originally from Victoria, a bowhunter for almost 40 years, Troy has been in WA for almost 30 years and dedicated his fair share of time to hunting camels.
We start off this episode recapping when Troy and I had a serious incident at home with a broad head injury before delving deep into the ins and outs of bowhunting camels in the west.
Camels aren't generally high on the list of species to hunt but I hope this episode ignites your interest. Hope you enjoy. Cheers! -
