Where going through our gear soon along with the ritual gun cleaning over a few beers , its about the only clean my shotty gets so it seems to take sometime

Well it starts with this post here : @BRADS Bro im sorted as, got twenty nine 24 packs of speights, sorted out all my spots to throw the dead ducks afterwards (got camera ready to take photo of ducks all lined up on my bonnet first) got 70,000 rounds of 12 gauge cos even though I say I know the limits of my gun and only take shots inside 40yds we all know ya just gotta pray and spray at anything that comes within 200m, the farmers will clean up the stragglers later on anyhow.

so now you have laid your trap awaiting for someone to come along and set it off there's nothing tongue in cheek about it your just trying to hide behind a seemly harmless post which most have come to realise your just doing what you do best being wanker & baiting people up so then you get to really say what's on your mind , which is the same as last year ...the Grinch of duckshooting

New decoys sorted,licence sorted feed sorted new gun can't wait.

Wow! Give the old chap a pat and a bikki from me. Well done that dog

@Dundee good to see your putting that Aussie to good use in guarding your gear, good luck have a great weekend as with the rest of you fallas

He's a bit faded now,been a while since https://www.nzhuntingandshooting.co....er-hills-2465/ New dog Bo has his maiden shoot coming up,he was only 6mths last season and only had him for the last two weeks of the season.

@The bomb far better to be deaf than blind like our 9yr old cocker....poor wee hua cant see more than a meter in front on a good day....his nose still awesome but its too dangerous to take him anywhere off lead as he cant find his way back if he takes off after a scent.....funny as hell in the boat hooning along and he out on the rail with nose going almost as fast as his wee stumpy tail.

My last duck/rabbit/deer dog was a springer -foxy,x. She made it to 17yrs,funny when she used to jump a hare on the walk to the Mai Mai she would give chase for about 10m then just watch it run off in her twilight years..sad to see great dogs getting on in years..

Kinda hoping the old dogs ticker will give out on him as he chases down a goose on a long retrieve in the lake ,be a good way to go for him I reason and easier on me not having to take him to the vets one day soon for the final time..much like the end of the movie “legends of the fall”..quote..it was a good death..

rememember to bring out as many of your empty cases as you can find to.
