Hi guys,
Currently in the process of moving from Western Australia to New Zealand! The fiancé and I have currently put an offer down for a little bit of land in between Hamilton and Raglan. Backs onto a massive forest with no neighbours within the immediate vicinity. I have just sold all of my guns here in Australia, only in anticipation of purchasing new....and far more fun guns when I land in NZ.
Looking forward to being an active member of the forum.

Welcome Blake you picked nice area to live!
Welcome mate, we sure doo have much "funner" guns here and .......................................sensible firearms laws unlike WA if I am not mistken :)
From one sandgroper to another welcome and where abouts are you from :)
Moved this way 2012, Gisborne then Tauranga.
My other half is kiwi from Paeroa and has older parents, so easier for us to move here, than having them fly to Perth.
You won't know yourself over here Kwozzie, I made the move in 96!!!
welcome to our world ...
why dont you come on in
.303's are still around
but get a shotgun to begin!
welcome my son to the land of the long white shroud,
governments dont shake us up
Bloody earthquakes do
looking forward to seeing you round!
Cheers guys!! Cant wait to get over get settled and see what good ol NZ has to offer. Going to be FIFO for a little while, then permanently based as of next year.
Originally from Busselton, my better half is also Kiwi and her whole family is in Hamilton. I was pretty keen for a change of scenery so we decided to make the move.
Welcome to NZ, looking forward to hearing reports of your future hunting experiences, it will make a nice change not having to watch for spiders, snakes, crocs. etc etc :D
Welcome @Kwozzie
Welcome aboard Kwozzie....:thumbsup:
i just moved back to Tauranga from seven years of moving and pulling tits, happy to catch up for a beer sometime?Quote:

Your all making me a little excited to get over there now!
I work in the mining industry in Western Australia, so I'll continue to do that for another 12 months then try to find me something I enjoy doing in NZ!
Spent a bit of time in Busselton myself, lived in Bunbury and Collie (!) for a while. Welcome, I'm sure you'll have a ball here
If you like hunting and fishing you have come to the right place. I've spent a lot of time in Au and although at the time the money was good and i enjoyed Sydney as a city, got to see a lot of the country mines etc, apart from the winters here for an out doors person N.Z is great. Fishing at Rags when you can get out is 2nd to none, and 2hrs drive to the Kaimanawhas, Pureora etc etc Good luck with the move
Where in WA are you working Kwozzie? I used to do FIFO 2/1 out of NZ to Newman for 2 and a half years. I made sure I had at least one day in the bush on my week off. Kept me sane and relatively healthy (I think) Still do work in Newman under contract sometimes. Off in a week or so again. As you know, if you are a keen hunter, NZ is the place to live. Enjoy :)
