    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!

    Went on a duck hunt on the Hoteo River off the Kaipara on saturday, high tide around midday gave us (3) plenty of time to get set up, on the board with 'our' first shot tied up in the mangroves in the harbour itself

    then went for a cruise up the river, absolutely stunning place, my first time, no more birds brought down, few shots fired though....then had a 'couple' of beers with the locals in the Mangakura boat club....

    "I'll be back"......

    Dog lives outside , but he's hunted well and hard so he's earned his spot in front of fire
