About LinkBacksMidweek hunt last wednesday on the Kaipara. Back at the ramp by 8.30am with my limit of 8......
Included in the bag was this mallard drake wearing jewellery....
Won a bunch of decoys last year in the 'band' draw with a drake from the same spot...hope this one is lucky!
Was the only shooter out on the harbour and the birds decoyed well...Got a triple with the first 3 birds that came in, followed by 2 doubles on the next 2 pairs that turned up for dinner...

Came home from our Northland trip and started getting stuck in around the Northern Waikato close to home
We were rewarded for our efforts with some great hunts
Shot some fish and game land close to home, wind direction was perfect most of the week so we did 3 hunts in here
First shoot we got 9x Mallards, 1x Swan
Second shoot we got 20x Mallards
Third shoot we got 5x Mallards including this barnyard special we are getting mounted

Did a midweek hunt down towards Waitakaruru, we have hunted this farmers land for a few years and while we see hundreds if not thousands of birds heading to and from the firth, very few are low enough or display any interest on coming in to the field spread.
Every year we tell ourselves we aren't going back and its just too much of a heartbreaker. This year was different, a patch of surface water had them committed in the final hour of shooting light resulting in 13x of the hardest won Mallards we've ever shot!

Warm clear weather arrived in the Northern Waikato for a few days last week so we decided to give the ducks a break and went after some Pheasants
Best mate had purchased a new U/O Beretta just before the season and I've been playing away with a 28ga I bought for my eldest to learn with
Our first hunt we managed to bag a Rooster each making it the first for both these guns
[ATTACH]224623[ATTACH]
A day or two after that we went out again this time with 2x more friends who have never shot pheasants, the conditions were perfect with squally bursts in between sunshine and we managed to pull off the most spectacular hunt of our lives, ending in a 4 man limit
My GWP was on form, and the shooting was also, doubt we will ever replicate that shoot for the rest of my days
