    Hi everyone

    Hi everyone,
    My name is Eli and I'm based in chch although free up in fairlie so that's where I do most of my hunting. Only had my licence and been hunting for 6 months now so have a lot to learn but that's why iv joined this site love getting out on my weekends for a shoot and have a few nice private blocks to head up where I have bagged a couple of deer so far, however more dumb luck than skill involved lol. Always keen for a hunting trip so if any experienced guys wanna pass on some tips and skills then let me know! Look forward to getting to know you all

    Welcome Eli. 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

    Hey Eli, I'm in Fairlie - been there about six months. Only been hunting a couple of years, so not a lot more experienced than you, but always keen for a hunt.

    Sup Eli, looks like you might already have a bromance sorted with Matt!

    I'm down in Chch next month for a week but already pretty booked up sorry mate. We might pause for an hour or so one night to yarn over some beers with the company of fellow forum members if you are keenburgers.
