    Hi all.
    I just want to pass on my condolences to Toby's family and friends.
    Never meet him but he seemed like a cool young chap.
    May your new hunting ground be full of trophies.
    Rest in peace mate.

    And you are not even a South Islander. Oh the shame your fore fathers must be suffering at the right hand of Oden in Valhalla.

    Jeebo (that's how the pain in the arse auto dialler in my car pronounces your name) you guys need to be more specific. If there is a competition then what is the maximum number of rounds to be fired in that? The other five thousand can be used at will to shoot up every blade of grass on the place. Rumour has it that Brad's is already bringing in the mining equipment to extract and sell the lead after the weekend.

    While you a are correct Rushy, please note the empathise on the weekend is FUN.
    I have spent many hours on the hill with some of the best shots in the business and some gear that makes ya trg look like a stone and I can tell you if it's windy the 2000 yard trophy is as safe as!
    I also don't want to put people off buy saying you must bring 80 rounds!
    So yes Me and Gibo will answer as soon as we have it sorted, before months end.

    No worries. Of course it is going to be fun although I am a bit concerned about the South Islanders stepping up for the Nude Jelly Wrestling. I know R93 will be up for it but I have met Beaker and he is a skinny little bugger so will be as slippery as all hell once the jelly melts.

    My main aim from this weekend is to honour our mate and meet the NZHS members I have yet to meet.

    Thanks for the answers guys, I'm still 50/50, but if I can I definitely will - I just wanted a ball park as per what Rushy said ie if 50 is woefully not enough I will splash out and buy another 50 cases

    50 would be a good two days, more would be a great two days.
