    Hiya, this looks like an interesting place to be. I've been hunting all my life - Dad started us kids on it before we were 5. Grew up in the forestry, so had the bush on our back doorstep for most of my life (awesome!). Had a break from hunting while I had my family, but now, teaching my kids the joys of it. Took them for a week away last school holidays - my son shot his first goats, and spotted his first stag - fantastic. My daughter was 'there' when we shot some goats.... kinda shocked how many goats around nowdays ! Anyhoo - be interesting to read some of the posts on this MB. Cheers.

    Fairly new here too, a lot of interesting stuff, some humorous exchanges take things off topic quite quickly at times, don't be afraid to add comments on anything youre interested in and have fun doing it.

    Rambler, several tramping mates of mine has seen goats near Crosbies Hut. Any first-hand knowledge of such?

    Cullers went through that area a short while back, but judging by the sign I saw while in the general area on a search last week, they didn't get em all

    Oh yeah ! Welcome aboard Rambler. Good to have another local on board

    Welcome rambler. Get into it on here.
    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
