Just Identify your target

I think that you , along with the majority of NZ hunters, are afraid of change. Non of us want a nanny state telling us what we can and cant do, but if we keep on doing what we always done, then we are going to keep on getting what we always got.
If we as a collective don't act, then the powers that be WILL act .

So change the arms code from Identify your target and have it say, Tell everyone where you are hunting so they dont shoot you??

Its not about change, Nothing wrong with whats there, simple thing is you need to identify your target. adding in all these other things is taking away from identifying your target.

Even doing target identification course with a pass or fail is not going to work, It is set up in a false environement and cant emulate being in the heat of the battle.

This is me speaking from seeing what i thought was a deer and it wasnt, it is also me leaving notes about where i am hunting (yes i do this in busy times) and still having a fark tard shoot past me and my son

It is human until proven (identify your target) otherwise, Not hard

You say the powers to be will change, So will they remove public holidays so there are not so many cars on the road, or enforce even days mean even street numbers drive?? How many Hunters in NZ v annual Deaths?? then look at drivers and deaths. Yes it matters to us the hunters and hits us harder than non hunters, They have stopped talking about it and we still are!! Has it made me more anxious to get out in the hills, hell yes. I have heard 4 more "close call or shear fark you attitudes in the last 2 weeks and thats in wellington alone. 2 of which were a father son combo so the father is not teaching the next generation good habbits, I hunt every weekend for 52 weeks of the year and it is only over this time i feel scared to go on my own. It shouldn't be this way

I say again, Identify your target beyond all doubt and life will be spared, even if the powers to be change things it will still happen, it is a fact of participating in a sport where we carry a device that kills things
