A new member set to be a great hunter

On Christmas eve i had the pleasure of taking @hunter270 on his first hunt, his basic skills a very good and i for one would like to encourage this young fella to spend more time in the bush with like minded people. this is were you guys come in he basically needs a full kit to hit the bush we do need a rifle as he is not at that point yet ie no firearms licence, boots and a daypack or bum bag would be a good start. if you guys have any gear you would like to pay forward pm me or @hunter308 or @hunter270 i am sure it would be greatly appreciated or if donations could be sent to hunter 308 so he could piece his gear together. i will put $70 towards some boots.

What size is it? I can fit a small, or extra small.

It's large but it fits me good and I take a medium.

I have a few spare beanies Could probably spare one and a hunting and fishing? jacket. Ok for wind and light showers,will get wet when it rains.

Man, i dont know what to say

What size boots do you wear mate? I have a pair of LeSportiva Himalayas if you want. They are good alpine boots small size 8 which is way too small for me.

I still have to take you for an evening fish at whiritoa too James which I was thinking about doing either 1st or 2nd and @Spooks place is on the way :D

I can see some confusion coming with this family...you have @hunter308 with a .270 and with his son pinching his alter ego @hunter270...what's the betting the son buys a .308 or a 7mm08 :)
