    Hi from Northland

    Hey. Names Steve and the time is right to get into a bit of deer stalking. It has been something I have wanted to do for a long time. Not to many deer up here but hunted ducks and what not from an early age. Getting my kit together and have got some good ideas from this forum so far. Gunna have to do the miles to get to hunting grounds but all good. Cheers.

    Welcome Steve. 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

    Don't forget I know where you live. How about I organise for the local pound to drop off a truck load of dog shit in your driveway? Or better still tell your old man that you have been drinking his port.
