If ya just want to have a meet'n'greet it's best to just KISS it, Just make it a BYO BBQ & BYO piss & BYO chair & swag, make a date 4 weeks in advance, somewhere central ( with a toilet would be handy lol ) and if you turn up you turn up. Best to do in warmer weather :)
Ive tried organising shoots & get togethers in the past & while you will get 20 people that say they'll be there you will be lucky if half turn up.
The old FnH BBQ's we used to have were great simple events
sooooo seen this is still in the design sorta stages, why not make it a annual thing? different region each year, someone from each year organises activities, but forum members help out with all the things needed for activities if required, if you had it near a town etc, backpackers or a holiday park is pretty cheap for accomodation, plus there are always halls etc for food prep and shin digs, i feel doing it by regions will be good in the end as then at least once people wont have to travel or could have people camp out at there place, top and tail or sleep with the dog, as for time of year, you want it when its nice and fine, maybe labor weekend? but then also run to close to xmas?? my 15cents so far
Hangis are pretty good. Bbq would probably be easier as theres less prep.
Other National Organisations I've been involved with have run national competitions years about in NI/SI usually at a location about the mid point of both islands - Taupo / Matamata in the NI and Omarama in the SI ... that seems to work ok ...
I'm keen, dates dependant but I agree with Dougie that more than a pissup needs to be arranged. Long/medium/close range gong shoot, deer stalk etc. I don't want to spend money on flights just for a pissup, but keen as if there's more involved.
I reckon camping out on a farm where we can do a small target comp some long range gongs and close to a place for a hunt somewhere. A bit of everything. Close to the sea is a good, a bit of fishing will be nice
You only got 11 friends! You missed me?:wtfsmilie:
Haha, I just took a mini holiday and actually got out to do some "shooting and rooting", feeling better now ;) and what's all this sarcasm about? I am much better than some people when it comes to being in a huff and fighting internet trolls! :)
Catch up @Maca49! It was S &. R ha ha. :D :D
Oopps wrong whole !!!
I havent done anything with the forums is agggeeees , last thing was a hunt and Philipos gong shoot I think...Id be keen for a Bull**** session whatever shape or form.
Well killed this thread didnt I!
As bad as it may sound, I suggested the idea but simply don't have an understanding of where the best sites / facilities and so on are in order to make constructive suggestions. I've been busy with fathering duties so unfortunately haven't had time to cast my shooting net very wide...
A date would the be first bet because everyone knows how those work. Queen's birthday - 6 June?
OK, so what date did you have in mind Toblerone? :)
Cuba Street Mall thru to Vivian from memory huh?
Do they still have the Easter Bunny Shoot down south ?
