    Red face Hiya from Hastings

    Gidday the name is Karen, recently just got my firearms licence along with one of my sons, the other boy in process of getting his now. Just need to get the daughter to get hers and we are all set to out do each other. Looking forward to getting out there with the kids, hopefully showing them hows its done, can't let the young buggers out do me. Have had a look around in here and looks a great site and awesome pics look forward to seeing more.

    Welcome to the forum, hope you enjoy a good read as there's lots of hunting info and stories here.

    If you have any questions just ask, someone will know the answer or be able to offer assistance.

    G'day Jack

    Welcome to the best hunting and shooting forum on the net.

    The Hawkes Bay crew is growing quite well

    From my experience teaching my kids to hunt .... the kids will soon be out doing the old man in almost every respect.

    So keep a trick or two up your sleeve for when you most need it

    Cheers
    Pete

    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

    Seeing your a local I can't help myself and put in a shameless plug for our local NZDA branch.

    We are currently on a recruitment drive to increase our members.

    Napier NZDA also has an active Junior branch with their own monthly meetings and many hunts organised each year.

    Might be something you might want to consider for both your self and your family.

    Come along to our next meeting and check us out.

    Nice one Brads

    But Napier NZDA is where it's really at.

    We have organised Hunts, Regular Range days and Annual Competition shoots.

    But then I'm Biased.

    Cheers
