Lower North Island Fresh Hunter
Hi all,
I have been reading the forum for a couple of years and created an account about a year ago. Have gotten a lot out of reading some of the threads and the knowledge shared here.
Although I have always been a keen tramper, I am a new hunter. I completed a HUNTS course last year which has set me up with some good knowledge and confidence to get out and have a crack. I bought myself a .22 for practice on the range and a cheap .243 for hunting.
I have been out doing a bit of "armed tramping" last year in a few different areas, saw plenty of sign but no animals. Over the Xmas break I managed to get my first animal solo on private land. In the new year I got my first public land animal, a billy goat, and public land deer.
Anyway, looking forward to continue learning and hopefully be able to give back as i get more experience.
Cheers, Ants
