    Gapped axe shoot and met

    No sympathy not beating around the bush, this will be my last season or part of. My hour glass is running out and before it does I thought it would be nice to spend the odd evening here and there and get out for an evening shoot and met some of you good buggas that are on here. It would have to be fairly local to work but yeah it would be nice. Not looking to blast someone eases posse, I have excellent if not the some of the best shooting available you can come and shot mine. Its just an idea what I think could work. I would need to keep an eye on how Im going but there would be no onus on you guys to look after me if I cant do that myself then I wont do it. My first stop will be some time on my Thornton pond and might even sneak in with Lentil, after that Woody in Reporoa. Wife will have to ok it but shes all for me enjoying myself. Maybe Bonecrusher in Aniwhenua my old haunt for nearly 20 yrs of shooting.

    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

    Get it done gentlemen, we are are a very strange creature, we seek solatude with good company, then seek good company to share the experiences of solatude!

    to spend an morning fishing getting shat on with the weather and then an evening on the beer with Toby and Luke was priceless! Time with great folk is just that!

    Kia Kaha.

    You depart with mighty boasts, but you come back having done little.
    Sounds like a typical hunting trip !
