    Beginings of a hunting odyssey .... Maybe

    Hi Guys,

    My name is Peter from Lower Hutt, Wellington,

    So after many years of thinking about hunting I thought I might pull finger and actually get do some thing.

    So after trolling the forums for a while I thought I'd introduce my self and possibly share some of my experiences of going from a hopeful hunter to guru ... maybe

    Currently in the process of getting a fire arm license
    • Application dropped off to cop shop
    • Gun Safe purchased and installed
    • Waiting to do NZMSC training and talk to Lower Hutt arms officer


    Any help advise, tips and tricks would be more than welcome.

    Welcome to the forum. enjoy.
    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

    One step at a time, tick the boxes and get out walking while you wait on your bang stick.
    find said bang stick that works for you and your surroundings....then purchase many more of them for a variety of surroundings and possible hunting times.

    Welcome, happy hunting. Hunt slow, hunt keen and hunt safe.
