    Goodbye Toby we will remember you

    I received a message in the small hours of this morning from Toby's mum Julie to say that the "tall skinny kid from Wairoa had gone off hunting for the last time" and could I let everyone on the forum know.

    Rest in Peace Toby and from me take the easy road from here mate, you have done all of the hard yards you ever need to do.

    The thoughts of me and my family are going out to yours and know that I will be there soon enough to give them as much support as they need to get them through this tough time.

    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

    Never met this guy but was happy to contribute to his last month's. This guy has certainly touched a lot of you and in a small way me.

    RIP, may you live long hunting for the trophy's in the sky.

    Rip Toby. You were strong till the end. I never meet Toby either but enjoyed his reading his posts. Being a .270 man through and through I love'd his banter. Toby you'll be glad to know that the .270 has been replaced with a 7x57. Hope you get a better deal now than the one you were dealt.

    Take care,
    Grunta
