I started hanging out with both South and Nth Taranaki branches but Nth club rooms are just around the corner from me so joined there. Shot at the range with Sth in Jan, one of their members took me on a meat hunt recently where I got a nice fallow hind. I've found members at both warm and welcoming with a good mix of young guys and old buggers with lots of experience. Like all such clubs there are bound to be some that grate on me and some that I grate on..Best just to stand back from that I reckon. Hope to be getting out a lot more as the house setup/unpacking diminishes. I'm a real newby to the locals so like all good things I'm expecting it to take some time. Off to a pretty fair start tho.

In comparison, Auckland is a lot bigger with often 60 to 80 members turning up at meetings. That might not suit some as well as a smaller group. But if you made the effort there folk were just as happy to engage..there was always something happening- it was up to you to join in.
