    Tin ass

    My brother is a tin ass. Went out for another goat and the bugger got 2 with one shot! We were sitting by a tree at the river bored as hell cause dad was fishing (he got one trout) when we saw a goat feeding down so back to the car to get the bow. I had the .22 at hand already but waiting then he came back handed me the camera and we stalked up a bit closer.

    "yup there's just the one young white one" so we hatch a plan and off he go's to stalk down a drain while I sit back waiting while he was gone I saw another black youngin feeding down. So anyway I'm sitting there waiting for a head to pop up in the place we talked about so I knew when to turn the camera on when thump the black one dead on the spot the white one runs about 5m and rolls down the hill and here's the tin ass bugger poked his head up grin is big as anything about 10m away! Couldn't believe he got that close with them noticing. Was wicked to see the black one which was standing behind the white one he aimed at drop on the spot.

    The arrow heads now got 3 goats to its name, if you remember the last goat he got which was his first and about the last shot that went into its neck bone. Will it cracked and we bent it back and recycled it. I wonder how many more goats it'll take. G5 Montec if anyones wondering. Anyway here's pics

    That is not tin arse Toby that is skill.
    It takes 43 muscle's to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger pull.
    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

    No Rushy it's his bro, that's why it's tin arse. If it was Toby it would be skill.

    For some reason the American reference to an animal seems to be creeping in to the language instead of the body part.

    Google it!

    A compound word sometimes used in 1970's and 80's New Zealand teenage lexicon to describe something that is cool or otherwise very agreeable.

    I just saw that new movie "Star Wars". It was absolutely tin-arse.

    OR:

    Tin-Arse
    Tin-arse is slang for lucky.
