I’ve seen through other things that you can be a real good bastard Ryan so as your fellow hunter who cares about the opportunities I have from the work the fwf does, I do hope you are indeed taking the piss.

I dont doubt one bit that for the most part they have done a great job, but like other organizations within the hunting space (ie: NZDA) there is a certain faction that seem to think that they are gods gift to the hunting fraternity and should be worshipped by all and sundry. I was also "banned" by one of their governing members who decided he could make his own rules after I got airlifted out of wapiti river with my knee blown to bits and my leg pointing in a direction that legs arent designed to point.
Theres definitely an "old boys association" within most of these organizations who seem to think their membership gives them some kind of special ability to make up punishments on the spot to preserve what they perceive as unwavering respect from all the peasants.
