    Hi Guys.

    Hi Everyone, brand new to hunting but its been a long life interest. My poppa was big into shooting and deer stalking and it fostered an interest from a young age. at the moment I have tikka .308 which I hand load for and I am currently building up my gear for getting out for a look in the hills to see what I can see. I live in northland and Im looking for spots and advice to see if I cant go and stalk a few pigs and goats for the freezer. I am really interested in chatting to a few of you more experienced blokes who have bit more of an idea about things than me. cheers.

    Hi Guys. Thanks for the welcome. A little update as to where I'm at. The 2019 talley saw me at 5 goats, 2 deer and 11 bunnies. some steep learning curves and a full and intimate understanding of how unfit I was (coming from a dude who has to run around in the shower to get wet).The learning continues and looking forward to keeping the freezer topped off for 2020. Ta and happy new year!
