Hi, new to forum

Hi guys howsit it going?

new to forum and to deer hunting, have a little experience with birds.

Living down in Dunedin, just picked up a .308 and looking to get into some serious deer and pig hunting. I usually hunt birds 1-2 a week (addicted) so am really looking forward to the challange of bigger sport.

Looking to learn and make some networks to hunt with, as most of my hunting mates are up in Aucks.

I need to sight in my rilfe, In believe there is a range that DS do on saturdays, never been but will look for it this weekend.

Any ideas on how to find and/or organise hunts around the area?:yaeh am not durnk:

cheers
James

Hey James, welcome! What kind of bird shooting do you do?

Mainly ducks, found a found few great places round dunners, been out on pool burns bons spiel station a bit as well. Keen to get in to upland game but havnt had a chance yet.

Also been training up my lab he's good at retrieving game but is still a little gun shy, human error I think!

I'm sure a few members here could tell you how to fix that :) (The gunshy bit!)

Bloody hope so,, just drops his head and backs off a metre or two when I lift rifle and shoot, after that he is fine, sees the bird going down and gets it. Some times gets a bit sheepish
