Nice one solid looking stag . You are one of the lucky ones who can walk out the door and hunt, keep it up at least we get to look at some stags from this roar.

Epic rifle pongo! Manners stock?

just a satellite spika but one down never the less, heard they are good eating if in china?

That just crack me

Love the rat and BB gun. Now we are talking. That is the style of hunting I am currently doing. Nice one mate. As for Pongo..............pest control.............. I am not talking to you mate. Onya. Us poor plebs who have to drive will be bloody pent up by next year. May the good lord help the stags then.

I was away hunting when all this lockdown stuff developed, and got home Thursday evening with this guy and a couple of hinds. Never saw a stag apart from this one but heard a few half hearted croaks. He was an accident but a tasty one.
That's a 270 for scale but he got a 7.62x39

270 and 7.62x39. You are a man after my own heart MH

And constant washing of hands and wiping of the ute's door handles. I also disinfected my quad with sterile wipes. I do though feel a little tinge of guilt about pushing the envelope.

The odd person living on a farm might go deer hunting now, but to me its breaking the spirit of what we are trying to achieve. You do vital industry work, or you stay at home.

I would just like to say how proud I am to be a hunter right now. I know how much we are all hurting, in yet people are being the better people for the good of the country. Mostly. This is a team sport for the next wee while folks and I look forward to the posts when we have seen it off. We live in paradise and it is worth sacrificing what we love for a while in the interests of preserving that long term. If we get this right the rest of the world will wish they were us. Kia kaha. Respect.

And Ive noticed that its helping to legitimising hunting. Ordinary NZ's are hearing that we are giving up something fundamental to our wellbeing and mental health. They are hearing about the roar and what it is, and that we are giving up something very important. The Gov is hearing it too. People might even be getting a glimmer of why guns are important to hunters. The Police while being part of keeping us out of the bush at least seem to recognise that we are making a sacrifice for the greater good.

Its an ill wind that brings no good.

Any evidence of this, printed or otherwise?

Or did you read it in a tipped over packet of fruit loops?

Seriously. You honestly think this current government or anyone, who has no interest what so ever in firearms or hunting gives a flying fuck about hunters missing out on a few weeks hunting?

Especially now when peoples lives and lively hoods are at stake.
Fuck me.

I didn't make the comment for you to agree to. But its what I think based on my observations and following the media.

Anything that puts "hunting" and the labels that go with it and what its about in front of the public is a positive to me.
