Thread: Not Happy

matty -this shootin game aint that bad if you can start out with basic recycled gear.i was very lucky in that a good mate shifted over the ditch only for his marriage to go tits up whilst he was away.hence i got his plant as he couldnt take it with him.apart from that i make a lot of my stuff -not overly flash but it works and helps the team effort.
id be only too happy to help you out in this respect.in fact i shoot with GSP follower C404 and a few others so if you do come out with us well you can see for yourself.

Happy to take up any offers to take me out with the new shotgun . Have only shot clays with it so far, and a few shots at patterning sheets. Still figuring it all out. Will go after some rabbits/hares when i'm next back in town. Am pretty sorted for normal hunting gear, just need some electronic earmuffs so I can still hear (don't need them with my rifles). But have nothing in the way of decoys or other duck shooting stuff. Feel free to show me all about that!

The Season runs until September, you all might need to travel and experience the whole of the country regions and species.

Come on now- look forward. There is a certain amount of amusement to be had in current activity but at the end of the day it is a commercial site and most have commercial aspirations be it just advertising revenue from the exploits of others work or political manipulation. They are perfectly within their rights to do what they think will attract more traffic- be it banning you, me or anyone else. Good luck to them.

For what it's worth having hunted with a lot of people the culture you display as a hunter is first rate, at times your tact isn't. Keep it light, jovial and not fake and you'll grow the following on this forum as well. Roll on May.

This explains a lot. Thank you.

It always cracks me up when you hear people moaning about the cost of a licence...you can hardly go to the movies for under $30 after admission, and a few treats...none of us would think twice to spend three times the licence price for a jacket or some other gear that we convince ourselves we really need...

all true eebees and the season it gives is a bloody sight healthier and entertaining than any movie not to mention usually remembered longer

Absolutely, @gsp follower, I cannot think of many things that can surpass being in the company of your dogs in the wilderness and having a chance to bring home something for the table...money cannot buy those moments we have all experienced in the field...when your dog does something that not only has the hair on back of your neck standing on end but also has you awed at his maturing abilities...I love too after getting home, hanging the bird or birds up and marvelling at the fabulous colours of their feathers, the dog in front of the fire after working him or herself so hard, the smell of the gun oil and that sound of the cork coming out of a port bottle...

yep and tho your as proud as punch theres usually no mate within 2 miles so you can modestly 'say'' yea mate thats what he,s supposed to do''i take a leaf out of that dad on the tv ad and tell red ''if i do this son[kiwi head lift and sniff] it means your awesome
mine would have to weave it between the mrs moggies if he was even allowed in.
funny how her useless pot licker and assorted feline food guzzlers are allowed even on the bed.

Well having paid the $92 it is my right to bitch. Its not the $92 . Lets face it thats a round of drinks . What does your licence money get used for ?

Im not really interested in parries or quail or pheasants to be honest. Greenheads are where its at for me. Again I may be wrong but I feel my licence money is not being used wisely.
I couldnt give a toss about the dogs working. I want to kill mallards .This season im not going to be as forgiving as I was last year.

nathan i think you are in serious need of a pre season man hug and settle the crusaders will come right
why limit your fun with so many gamebird species to frustrate,age and send us to the poor house
we all think our licence money is bieng used unwisely usually on anything to do with bloody fishing,
aimless bloody pasttime waiting hours to catch something that tastes like mud[trout]
christ who,d sit all day in a bush by the water hoping something might come past,oops

Now that's nostalgic

The sound of a cork coming out of a port bottle

just checked our ponds tagged both fed one
i thought our water levels wouldnt be bad but hell where in need of about 4 inches of water just to makre the front end of one perfect.
the back of it is great with wall to wall ducks and if rain dont come we,l all pile in the back.
fed ponds low but birds and pigs are decoying well.

@Gapped axe, nothing nostalgic about it if you ever get a chance of buying a bottle of Pedro Ximenez Duquesa your expenditure will reward you...the Romate is good but just not quite as good as the Duquesa...Scenic Cellars at Taupo usually stock it...was first introduced to this nectar of the gods when on a duck shooting trip to Lake Bulloake, Victoria...
