    Mate it must have been shite to make you go green at the gills.
    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

    A mate got a terrific deal on some Zeiss binos at the Zeiss stand. Leica and Swarovski didn't have anything close to a bargain for him.

    Gumboots next year.

    I heard a few people got some great five finger discounts on Leica and Swaro. Quite a lot of high ticket items were stolen. You'd think there would be better security and stuff locked up. No doubt a lot of ammo walked out the door in jacket pockets as well.

    No surprises there to be honest - I bought a new rangefinder and was thinking the whole time - crikey these buggers are hardly paying attention to their gear it's a wonder it hasn't been pinched. Bloody mongrels everywhere. I was at a stand last year when a prick tried to walk off with a new bow - lucky someone noticed and called him out on it.

    Always good to get out of the house for the day, share some laughs on the ride up and back and a big bottle at the pub on way home
    Hats off to the scoring volunteers, might even put my name in the hat for a scribe next year, learn a thing or 2.
    Even had a shot with a bow which was cool.

    Gummies in the boot for next year for sure,
    Went to buy some camouflage trousers the other day but I couldn't find any.

    Disappointment with the sika show this year ,there has been complaints from a few people on the stands .I visited a few guys for a chat . Some expensive rifles bolt to the wall $3500 + and rain pouring down the back of rifles , tables wet with products up for sale .Marquee's with holes in roof not a good start .The Marquee should of been close together instead of spread apart .Not signs to direct people to the right sights and people heading off down town for food wasn't a good look .I had a phone call from someone on stand said they had rang the organiser about the set up and complained .It was good to catch up with a friend doing there bit to track down the elusive moose I hope there findings produce proof when it comes available . Also good to see new products on the market to help the hunters and the tourist get around the country
