    Nice work!
    You have a great tutor in Puffin in teaching you how to look after the meat.

    Great yarn mate. Fark that looks steep!

    A few good learnings there by the sounds.
    1. Get proficient at setting up for the shot
    2. Puffin is a bloody good bastard
    3. Don't trust Puffin when he says "an easy hunt".

    Keep the stories coming!

    Well done

    Next time you are in the supermarket, try looking at the price of venison - I always find that is an extra small joy

    Well done @Big_Bear . Now join Wellington NZDA and get onto some branch trips and grow your independence. The meetings are generally interesting too. Make yourself known to me if you attend. Bruce.
