    Newby to the forum

    Hi guys! Seems like a great networking site, so happy I stumbled across it.
    Been hunting for 23 enjoyable but very frustrating years and finally cracked it, shooting my first Sika in November, followed by two Red hinds in Otago in February and then the most amazing day ever shooting two sika in the morning and a 9-point red in the arvo two weeks ago! I'm doing nothing different to what I've always done, so very happy to have the monkey off my back and a freezer full of venison.
    Be good to meet some other good, keen (safety conscious) men (and gals) to hunt with. Cheers!

    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

    Originally from a small south Waikato forestry town called Te Whetu (no longer populated so just a place on a map with no people these days). Now live at Woodhill in the Helensville area.
