    Nice shot! Right between the eyes.

    I sent this pic around work saying "I hope you guys have your easter eggs sorted... because the easter bunny aint coming...".

    This was a 150m~ shot with the .17HMR. Hares, rabbits, possums... they never get up once the .17 hits them.

    Yup, numbers were well down on previous years, only 10k+ this time. Worst team got only 30 - recently poisoned farm it seems. But yeah, numbers were way down this year, top team only got @1100. It has been very wet down there atm though.

    At the last NZDA meeting one of the guys was talking about this saying it's because the local farmers have a lot more access and help with poison now so that's having a big effect.
