A thorough review of how we do our trials in NZ is badly needed.

Some of the P&S NG trials are based upon "wild" pheasants pre released in reserves.
How often are no results posted thru lack of game?

Some areas down South have miniscule pheasant seasons that make holding NG trials impractical.

Meantime, those forced to do pigeon trials cos of no other option bear the brunt of criticism.

I have no idea who the heck you are Smallfry, but from where i sit, you are a breath of fresh air.
