    Dundee, you of all people know that you have to fish where the fish are. Same story with ducks mate!

    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

    Haha! You must have been shooting in the lower North Island too Dundee!!!

    Had a great May but bloody slow end to the season... in fact June was quiet full stop in the 'Rapa.

    Pic of my last shoot on Lake Wairarapa (closing week). Nothing flew until well after last light. Oh well, there's next season to look forward to LOL
