    Can you or does anyone know if you can still take a motorbike up to the Te Puia hut ? Many years ago when I was a bit younger a group of us rode up to the hut , stayed the night then took the six foot track up to the Te Matawai saddle( think that's what it was called ) great ride but hard work.

    I'm keen and a relative youngy at 66. Will have my mate's young fella (10) with me. He's got a few young bloke problems related to ADHD, but for some reason listens to me, so I help out a bit with him. Anyway, he's raring to go and has promised to behave and would be rapt to be in such august company. He's a bright lad, and really wants to become a hunter. Hope this is okay with all. He'll be my responsibilty and knows he'll be going home if he doesn't behave. Anyone against, please let me know and I'll drop out, no hard feelings.

    Thank Biggun, Paddy and Rushy, But I'm not big and not scary, just old. Except sometimes to myself when I find myself in a dodgy place above a big drop

    Keneff that is exactly the sort of young fellah that needs to come. All power to your right arm.

    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!
    Rule 1: Treat every firearm as loaded
    Rule 2: Always point firearms in a safe direction
    Rule 3: Load a firearm only when ready to fire
    Rule 4: Identify your target beyond all doubt
    Rule 5: Check your firing zone
    Rule 6: Store firearms and ammunition safely
    Rule 7: Avoid alcohol and drugs when handling firearms

    Didn't think Waikato had any benefits, @ONYVA, apart from reducing the volume of that putrid river

    Thanks to all you guys who accept what I've asked. I think it's a big thing to be able to get hold of these young kids and try to channel them into a constructive, happy life BEFORE they run off the rails, and this is something he's really interested in, so that will make it easier for him. He is a good, likeable kid and I'll be keeping a close eye on him.
    Cheers,
    Ken

    Slight editing and I think most of us fit in that category!
    I also want to become a hunter so in good company.

    More the merrier I say and all the better to see the young ones coming through.
