Our guide
Wal Chapman is your host and knows the property intimately. He will orientate you to the property and show you all the boundaries and common haunts of animals as well as providing bush safety advice. This is usually broken into two sessions to allow you some immediate hunting time. Experience on Milani means Wal knows the wind currents and habits of the game among the multitude of hills and valleys. This understanding helps him to locate the game quickly and efficiently.

It is a part of our risk management policy for hunting on Milani that all first-timers undertake an orientation with a guide. This ensures a thorough introduction to the intricacies of Milani and that boundaries are clearly understood in areas of thick scrub.
