Thread: Hello

Hi guys I just moved here three weeks ago from the UK. I have being in to stalking and foxing in the UK for the last two years so still fairly new to it all, and really new to it here so mega excited to get me a new rifle bought and get out there and learn all about it. Hopefully with so helpfull knowlage from people on this site thanks Sam

Welcome to the forum and also to NZ I'm also a Pom been here since February there's a lot of knowledge on here and some bloody great hunting about. Hell of a lot more accessible than the UK too. Where in NZ are you?

Cheers Antz

another bloody pomgolian....................welcome to nz, i came here in 73 and never went back

welcome ... i put "stalking" and "foxing " into google ....... interesting results

Welcome Sam NZ is a great spot to be in.

Now you can shoot deer just like the rich and famous in pommie land. Welcome to NZ, if you have family with you just make sure they are ok and settled or you will be dragged back to the homeland. For a outdoorsman this place is the place to be. Been here 21years and never gone back to the dump they call England, and New Zealand is the closest I will get to heaven

Welcome. Sam.

Hey sam if you get some time over the next couple weeks you should chuck up a story in the hunting section on the whole foxing thing. I'd be interested to read it and i think a few other members would be keen to read about something we dont get to do here. Welcome to the forum cuz

Hiya Antz thanks. I am based just south of Christchurch. Near tai tapu. So about a 1 an a half hour drive from you I think. How have you go on with getting out hunting?

Hi only ordered my new rifle today (haven't told the wife yet lol) heaps of good doc blocks around. I met a farmer today who has 3000 acres of prime fallow hunting and no One hunting there. I asked the big question " can I come and shoot some deer" and to my amazement he said yes anytime. Chuffed with that result. Did you bring any firearms with you?

Cheers Antz

Hi Sam, I also left the old country a while ago, think it was 1948, you have come to a great country at a time when hunting is great, if you get offered chances like Antz, don't tell the world or you'll have heaps of "mates".

Your quite right don't let others spoil your hunting areas.
