    New fella

    Hi there, im tauranga based. Started hunting 6 years ago in te urewera.
    My uncle got me started in there to whom i will forever be grateful for. After a couple of years of grafting I found a good possie with a good hit rate.
    Im only in there for some meat and peace and quiet so it is the only place i need to hunt. I have noticed that the deer are getting skinnier . I take out hinds whenver i can to do my bit. I dont really venture anywhere else for hunting but tramp and trail run in other places.
    Nz isnt perfect but jeez its a great place to be for enjoying the outdoors.
    Have joined up after many years of browsing.

    Welcome aboard
    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!
    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
