    Went out to the pond on Saturday Morning with very high hopes after reports of good numbers

    After sitting there for two hours and seeing /shooting one mallard we were scratching our heads. Further investigation revealed empty lead cartridges around the pond of which none were ours



    Further prompting of my mates father in law we found out the share milker had jump shot the pond with the neighbour on Friday night knowing full well we were coming Saturday. Not that he should be shooting there at all I might add. With this info on board we were straight around there

    Had to go to Timaru in the afternoon to visit a family member in Hospital. With the in laws away( overseas for 3 weeks) I thought it would be rude not to "look after " his pond .



    A pair came in right on dark. One got out the other tasted good.

    Toby, mrs dundee and Sparrow like this.

    Bloody brilliant Nathan
    It takes 43 muscle's to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger pull.
    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!
    Rule 1: Treat every firearm as loaded
    Rule 2: Always point firearms in a safe direction
    Rule 3: Load a firearm only when ready to fire
    Rule 4: Identify your target beyond all doubt
    Rule 5: Check your firing zone
    Rule 6: Store firearms and ammunition safely
    Rule 7: Avoid alcohol and drugs when handling firearms

    As above a great morning shoot at our little pond. Had a lot of singles and pairs coming in between 7am and 10 am.

    I also shot this real mongrel half bred/ cross bred drake. Green head , White neck , Parrie female brown underneath and a black back.

    All in all another good hunt. Looking forward to Monday. Off to shoot a honey hole thats been left alone for over a year. Crawling with bandits appearantly
