    Wasn't an isolated incident either
    Identify your target beyond all doubt

    I'm fairly careful on DOC land knowing that a bald farmer on the boundary is watching me with his trail cams if I cross his fence.Not a bad shot either.

Without proof the shots were aimed in their direction this should have gone no further but I suspect it was an advertising opportunity for Josh whos populaeity might have been dropping.

    I dont think it matters if the shots were "to scare game away"
    If someone shoots in your direction, in plain sight, they are guilty of at the very least, careless use, if not attempted murder.
    Of course, proving it is a different matter.

    And I dont believe that Josh would stoop so low , just for publicity

    Don’t think it was a publicity stunt, he rung me as soon as he got out from this trip to tell me what had happened, pretty serious shit, I think if his boy had of been with him it would be a different outcome

    I prob see Josh less than 1 a month and havnt hunted with him for a couple of years so have no reason to be biased towards him

    Dont waste your time chasing every last fps, it doesnt matter in the real world, it wont make a difference, all it will do is cause head aches and frustrations. And dont listen to silly old cunts

    Hi Guys, I originally posted this because I was suprised that in the current climate regarding firearms a pretty serious allegation had been made, and not seemingly taken that seriously by the Police.
    I cant help but wonder if a hunter had fired over a boundary onto private land in the vicinity of some trampers, if the outcome would be the same.
    Or if they would still have a licence?

    Interested what the full story is, i.e. did kiwi bushman hear bullet(s) flying by or impact near him, or did he simply hear a shot or shots?
