    New Hunter (Otago)

    Hi all,

    Originally from Oamaru and now based in Queenstown. Have a beautiful 3yo boy and a 7 week old boys, which is inconvenient to my new obsession/hobby which is hunting! Jokes aside, I love my boys and my partner is excited for me to take them out in weekends over the years to come. Have managed to get 2 fallows around here on my walks, and learning heaps everytime I'm out. Excited for the upcoming roar and see how things go there. Happy to link up with any Otago hunters, and have just joined the Southern NZDA branch to get some tips and meet some similar minded people.
    On ya!

    Welcome. Plenty of areas to hunt here, that's for sure. Deerstalkers are a fairly welcoming bunch, I'll be there next Thursday at the monthly meeting.

    Welcome aboard Nick
    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
