- Biography:
- Hi everyone, I have been around the chat for a while, just reading and piping up every now and again, but have recently seen it mentioned a couple of times that the introduction is significant in joining the community.
I'm a early 30's father of 3, farming in the south of the south. I've always been interested in hunting but its never made it far enough up the hobbie list for serious expeditions so mostly farm hunting for me so far. Due to no longer being up to my main sport, rugby, I'm keen to get into it more and I need something to get me off the farm once in a while.
My little brother was a serious hunter. Big missions up and down the laps on both coasts, a couple of fiordland trips and a stint guiding in the northern mountain forests of British Columbia.
I always anticipated he would drag my big ass out and show me some real nz hunting when he came home to farm with me.
We lost him before that plan came together. If anything, this has made me more determined now to make it happen, live some of the experiences that he lived and hopefully measure up to some of his legacy.

300CALMAN liked post by LMcNab On thread : Howa good is your Howa? (picture heavy)I have occasionally seen disparaging comments made about the humble Howa 1500. There seem to be threads singing the praises of most of the other major brands so I thought I'd start one up for what...

Barry the hunter liked post by LMcNab On thread : Couple of firsts
You were actually still in Otago, just. Personal experience has shown me the quickest way to improve your shot placement is to ruin a hind quarter or two! Happens to us all. Glad you had a good day.
