    Yeah I would recommend the PLB as well. 406MHz is good and they also have a 102ishMHz for narrowing down the search area even more. Good to have a system where the battery is solely used for...

    It all started with me scoring a ballot block in the Molesworth for the 2022 Roar. Being a newish hunter yet to shoot a deer I pondered the best plan of action and decided to open an offer to join...

    Hi guys, Thought I should report back on how I went today. So upon entering the block there was a tonne of droppings, fresh and everywhere. I've never seen a wallaby or wallaby droppings before...

    As a North islander you will initally be rubbish at estimating range in a totally different environment, trust me I know from experience. Take a range finder.

    Park up facing sunny faces in the mornings and evenings. In the heat of the day they will lie up in the shade. Expect to shoot out to about 300 metres and be able to shoot them in the top 1/3rd for...

    I’ll add some “protocol” for hunting private blocks. Listen CAREFULLY when you speak to the farmer before you go in, if he says “let me know when you’re off the property and how you got on” and...

    If you like the remmy platform go out and buy a bergara and call it done. A remmy action with all the flaws ironed out and will cost a lot less than doodling around with your current action.

    She’s a forum legend in her own right, that dog. A good dog, a proper good dog. Tilly lives on in all the stories and photos on here, and we’ll all miss her. Chin up mate.
