    Hi from Wellington

    Hi all,

    I'm Aaron, living in Lower Hutt.
    I've been hunting now abour 5 or so years. I've been privileged enough to be invited onto some private property by my workmate who has access so I've cut my teeth mainly on farm/bush edge.
    I've only been hunting on public land a few times now, still building my confidence in the bush and knowledge. Actually going into the south west Ruahines this weekend. Not too sure how it will play out with a Nor wester, Westerly forecast though. I guess I'll have to go in to see!

    Cheers guys

    Welcome. regardless of the weather just go for it, you will learn more in the bush even if torrential winds or down pours than staying home wondering about it. Like the saying goes, a wet day in the bush is better than being home on the couch.

    Never argue with stupid people, they will drag you down to their level and then beat you with experience.

    Welcome Winga. Your name is not Inga by chance?
    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!
