    Gday all

    Hey guys, names Ben

    Been following the forum for a bit now and thought it's about time to introduce myself.

    Wife and moved here from Townsville about a year ago and we love the place. We've decided it's a long term move and have our 1st kid on the way. So hoping to get out into the hills as much as possible over the next while.


    Definitely a newby to hunting so might be a few dumb questions, don't really get the same opportunities back home as you do here.

    Cheers

    Hi @Bennymac, and welcome. There's no such thing as a dumb question, but some of the answers can be a bit iffy. You'll have fun and learn heaps in here. Both my brothers worked on prawn boats out of Townsville and have had plenty of good things to say about the place.
    Cheers,
    Ken

    Welcome Ben. Ask away. There are some learned buggers on here.
    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
