Hows it going from Hawkesbsay

Hey Everyone, Let me first apologies because I have made a couple of post but have yet to introduce my self. How bloody rude haha!

My names Casey Im 21 and come from Hastings Hawkesbay, I really enjoy my outdoors fishing and hunting. have yet to secure my first deer but Im sure its not to far away. Specially with all the great tips and tricks Im learning from all the forums members.

I must log in every day to catch up with the latest and all the banter that goes on in the community on this forums its just awesome! Im looking forward to bagging my first deer Im not sure whats going to be more fun posting it up on here and waiting for all the witty responses or the hard yaka its gonna take to get one.

Anyway that's enough from me Cheers Happy hunting :)

PS I have my own transport to so if anyone is looking to go on a bit of a joint hunt let me know im always keen to get out and do it :)

Welcome Casey

Welcome Casey. Let me know when you go out i am always up for a trip out when i can ( when allowed ).

Hi Casey, Welcome to the Forum.

Hawkes Bay is a great place for a hunter to be based. Ruahines and Kawekas make up your Western Boundary what great places for endless adventures. Red deer and Sika abound in both these Ranges.

Thanks everyone for the warm welcomes. Scribe Have you done much hunting yourself around these ranges?

Welcome.

Not new to HB but new to hunting and like you still waiting for my first deer.

Been practising at the range getting comfortable with the rifle and slowly building up the gear I need to go into the bush

Joining the deerstalkers in Napier so hope to go out on some club hunts

Yep I have spent a good few years in these mountains. Mainly the NW Ruahines. but I have been into a lot of other areas as well.

Welcome to the best Hunting & Shooting forum on the net Casey

There lots of members based here in the Bay.

Springs on it's way too.

Cheers
Pete

Welcome Casey. Scribe is a modest man so I will tell you that asking him if he has done much hunting is like asking water if it has ever been wet. If the man gives you any helpful hints then treat them like gold.

Hi, welcome, get out there.:D

Hi and hot barrels!

Welcome and enjoy.

From the Bay too, the Southern end and Welcome.

I'm pretty sure Scribe was one of the building crew who made those hills :)

Welcome Casey, there are a lot of us jealous of your location! Happy hunting!

I could probably take you out for a hunt if your keen. If you are down in Taupo send me a message.

Hey Keltic Kiwi, Whens the deer stalkers club id be really interested in joining up my self. And I Didn't even know we had a gun range where abouts is that i wouldn't mind checking it out just got a new rifle and haven't even put a bullet through it yet :l

Hahah Rushy Im all ears! lol.

Thanks Luke Im always keen to come out for hunt iv sent you a pm with my details :)

Welcome along Met4lboy, Yep the Bays not a bad spot for a hunter. And joining up with the Napier Deer Stalkers would be highly recommended, we have our club nights on the last Monday of the Month (so have just had one this week) a good place to network and learn from others and get along on some club hunts and range days etc.

Keltickiwi, i think i met you on Monday night, i was sitting the other side of Peter, and he kept calling you Jeremy ;-)

Welcome to the forum MB, great introduction, good luck on your first....

Casey, welcome aboard. If your going to go to a NZDA meeting you need to go to the best one :thumbsup:HASTINGS BRANCH NZDA !!!!!!!!!

Yes I am going to go to the Hastings one as well, big decision when you are setting out from the start so best to be a bit of a tart and check out all the options. I am in Taradale so halfway between both and one of the guys from work saw me browsing and is also considering going to the hastings one tomorrow night as well

Both are good. Being Hasting ex president give me some bias!
