    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

    I have dogs. Just pets. I love them but they are good for bugger all.

    The dog sports interest me.

    My uncle had (locally) very well regarded gun dogs for fur and feather.
    My father bred dogs for fur and feather also very well regarded.

    You would never have seen either of them at any trial because of the pomp.

    I won't use the words either of them would have used.

    And its an attitude and perception that is threw out nz has been and always will be unless there is change.

    I have work clothes,hunting clothes one pair of tidy jeans and one pair of dress pants for weddings and funerals, and a couple of shirts with a button front.
    I could be way off but that probably typifies the outdoors kiwi bloke.

    Hanging on to another countrys traditions and apparel when that very thing is what we all tried to escape(with limited success) is just plain daft!

    I agree that you probably shouldn't turn up to your sports(whatever it is) in your favorite metalica t shirt you have had for 20 years(yep have one of them too) that is more holes than shirt.

    If you want to grow your sport you need to encourage people get involved.
    You won't do that by telling them to only turn up in some weird expensive dress wear they will be embarrassed to be seen in public with.

    All that is required is.

    "tidy standard of dress"
    Ie clean no holes no patches and your good.

    Encourage people into your sport don't turn them away like they have been doing for the last 50 years.
    "Hunting and fishing" fucking over licenced firearms owners since ages ago.
