So, who's going from the South, and is it worthwhile trying to sort a road trip?
Think @gadgetman had a deal on a van leaving from chc?

If I could get my rifle and gear taken up for me I will be able to attend. I fly back from work on the Thursday and would maybe fly into wellington and rent a car to get up Friday.
Dunno how to wangle getting my gear up there tho.

I will send you my hard case and you can courier it to me. I'm sure getting from Welly to Napier won't be too hardQuote:

Would stay up for a spring sika hunt but have a lot of time away with other stuff that break. But maybe I could get away with a few extra days.😆

How many Guns are you taking. You welcome to use the hard case I have here as well if more that one .
@R93 lemme know your travel details and we can sort something out. I'll more than likely be taking the van up to sleep in, so spare seat if you need one, plus space for gear. You can courier rifle to me or to one of the CHC boys.
I've got a spare hard case and we could take the gear up.
Righto I will work something out thanks fellas.
I will only be taking the one rifle and some spare barrels.
I will buy a hard case as I will need one in the future. Thanks for the offers.
Probably easiest and cheaper if I get them to gadget as I fly out from chch for work.
So if you have room for a rifle and another bag that will be good mate. I travel to work with carry on only, so will need to give you another bag.
I will get in around midnight to wellington so will book a motel ebf.
If I can then catch a ride up with you on the friday that would be good.
I might stay with KJ for a few days and then fly back to chch from Napier if we can wangle a sika hunt after the weekend.

F'ing hell, you make easy things complicated.
You live in one of the great places in the world, however due to work you need some help.
Gear to chc, guys put it in rd train heading north. You arrive at shoot and use gear. If you don't arrive, barrels get used as spits.
Easy concept.
Me, I'll pay on Monday, but may be a last minute pull out. (Already have 2 kids....)
Got a mates wedding the weekend of, bugger.. I vow to make it to a shoot in the years to come!
@gadgetman, i hope we can sort something around renting a van as during these last few days of boredom I have managed to compile a playlist for everyones listening pleasure on the trip north, hope you like zz top, and zz top...
Don't need to rent one. Never heard of them.Quote:

Check out all you unprepared roosters!! I have been sorted since September......................2015!!
I've been leaving it to allow a bit of flexibility work wise.Quote:

To all Mainlanders handing up to visit our poor northern cousins. Safe travels up there. Hope the weather we're experiencing down here at the moment passes through before the competition begins. Wish I could be there to spin shit in person, but some of us hardy folk have to stay behind to keep the country afloat. It's our turn next year.
Good luck, hot barrels and remember to keep the fluids up
Am heading south to the event now
Just high cloud today
