    Hi From Sunny (...well liquid sunshine!)Scotland

    Hi,

    My pal managed to convince me to book up and come hunting next year (end of March to 10th April) so I am really looking forward to it and I am hoping to glean some good knowledge from the forum.
    I have seen the final Itinerary yet but we are doing Tahr, Chamois, maybe some Wallaby/Goats/Pigs and definitely Red Deer. The mountain Tahr look particularly challenging for me as I was 19 stone and have managed to get down to 17st but I am certainly not fit by NZ standards having watched youtube, you guys must have bionic legs. Fingers crossed I can lose another couple of stone before end of March!!!

    Cheers Dave.

    Hi Dave, If you come further south with a bottle of glenfiddich as a "poor trade' to my mate's "Fire Water" we could set you up for a great roar! Keep it in mind for the future! BTY only Scottish coin accepted down south!!

    Bring a good stock of fine single malt and you should have no problems getting offers for a hunt.

    Och Jock welcome. Make sure you bring your MacCamo Kilt.
    It takes 43 muscle's to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger pull.
