    Two-year lurker - West Coast and chch based

    Hi all, I've been lurker here a couple of years now, thought I'd actually introduce myself.

    I'm Lui, until very recently based in Christchurch, just moved over to the west coast for wife's work. Having a very energetic toddler means I'm more of a runner than a hunter at the moment, but am slowly assembling a kit that lets me do the both at the same time - successfully trialled by bagging a couple of deer near Mt Thomas after a 12km very-early-morning run in.

    The forum is great support, have spent a reasonable amount of time scrawling through various interesting pages from you lot, so many thanks for that! If anyone in the Greymouth area wants to team up for some evening/early morning hunts I'm very willing to put the hard work in!

    Welcome dude, I'm a newbie myself but I'm no stranger to forums, I've spent many years on the Patrol4x4 forum and the old NZ Offroad Express forum (ORE) as I'm a 4wder. I recently discovered this forum and it's top notch, the info on a daily basis is continuous and that's a good thing. Where on the West Coast?. We spend a lot of time in Hari Hari where my wife is from.

    @Boxton you sure did!

    And @Twodiffs we're up in Greymouth. I'm more of a walker than a 4wder, but probably worth a look out for some access points over here!
