    Welcome aboard
    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

    Welcome to the forum, I just moved from there so some pretty good DOC blocks if you dont mind a bit of a drive, plenty of goat curries on the side of the road, vehicle security will be a problem where ever you park. I will give a few mates a call, no promises but I will try and link you up.
    Woody and Barry the hunter like this.

    The locals are very protective of "their" land and will abuse you and tell you to go elsewhere even if its public land. Ive notified DOC a few times of adjacent land owners keeping people out of public land but they do jack shit about it. Farmers are very unreceptive in the area too. Id head off to the north and south Pureora to hunt where you will only bump into other likeminded hunters on the roads in and have decent sized blocks to explore.

    Ask the dude hiding in the bush and doing an armo in Te Kuiti. He gets around. Clown. Used to kill billies at Te Anga and go back 2 weeks later and get the boars feeding on them.
