    Welcome to the forum Hunter 101.
    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

    Hello Hunter101, I see you live about ten minutes from my place,
    its no problem to get you out for a hunt, school you up on where the Sika are and why, and show you some good possies you can go back to anytime you want.

    Then just keep in touch, and we will pick you up anytime your able to join us.

    We can get you out before you have a license and gear.
    As long as a licensed hunter is supervising you then you are fine, and im sure I have spare bits and pieces you can have.

    Another young Napier hunter (Petree) has the same name as you and is enjoying hunting Sika for the first time this year.

    3 Andrews on a hunt are sure to drive my hunting buddies into hysterics.........

    I know at least one of the "Andrew's" that is a member on here (the one that is really a kilt wearing Jock). He is a good bastard to have around your camp fire and prefers the handle "Drew" which is why I call him Andrew.
