    Hi everyone

    Hi just thought i would announce my existence on here.

    I joined the forum a few weeks back so i could traul through the mountains of info thats on here and just generally get involved. So I'm a beginner hunter who just got my license my couple of months back and have already got over excited and purchased a .22lr and a 7mm08. So far just been pointing them at paper but will be going door knocking in the next week or so to try and gain access on some bunny/hare territory. Currently living in Wellington hoping to get down south in the near future where i'm hoping my new hobby will be a little more accessible. So far my hunting career consists of a few bunnies a few hares a duck and a goat hoping to expand on this in the very near future.

    Cheers for reading my little ramble and im sure ill annoy you all with rookie questions soon enough.

    Welcome to the forum young fellah.
    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

    Not sure young is the right word (early 30's) fresh certainly is.

    Glad someone thinks so it's certainly not what people keep telling me.
