    Hi from over the ditch

    G'day guys,

    Pete here. Convalescing at home after surgery and came across this forum. Long time deer hunter...first came to NZ in 1973 and have been back more times than I can remember. Can't get enough of the NZ back country....and no bloody snakes

    Worked for NZFS SW Ruahines Pohangina Base 74-75

    Have hunted most of the Kaweka's....favourite spot....Ngaawapurua.

    Great to find this forum and read posts of areas I have hunted in.

    Welcome Pete. We do have one eyed trouser snakes in New Zealand. Gibo has a pet one that he plays with a fair bit.

    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
