    New member from Tauranga

    Hi all,

    Doing the obligatory introduction here and really hoping to meet some new people. Been in Tauranga for about 18 months after gapping Auckland. Hoping to connect with some like minded locals here. Pretty keen to explore some of the bush in the area and do some overnighters. Spent some time in the army and miss the whole being out under the stars thing.

    Cheers

    Guilty as charged. Decent show, the idiocy of it all is a good laugh. Good spotting on your part :-)

    Welcome.
    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

    I lived in the Katikati area for 30 years and know the Kaimais pretty well. Have now moved to Hamurana, Rotorua, but happy to liaise and point you in (hopefully) the right direction. It’s a short drive for me from here to Tauranga for a chat, but you can shout me a cuppa. I will not be available for a week or so though.
