Very pleasant shoot last night on one of our team sites near Christchurch, with alan and gadgetman from this site.

Wandered the big paddocks in the 80 series Cruiser with maxtochs and thermal....

Aahh!! That's funny ... I have your Marlin!!! Grabbed the wrong gunbag!

Will get it over this weekend - poss this arvo if you're home :P

Chilling out before bed at 3.34am - a very pleasant shoot tonight on a site near Christchurch. Had opportunity to play with my Howa 1500 223 after shooting it in on range recently - thoroughly...

Well done - another shoot I missed.... aaargh!! 146 very good effort for that site just 45 min from Chch.

Good to hear the 22 magnum got some use too - as well as the 223.

Good start to this...

A good shoot - Alan says 110! Missed this one too after tooth extraction. Dammit!

Team doing well since lambing - 4 outings in 7 weeks for 308 bunnies = 77 average. Almost all 223, with few...

Dammit!! Out with covid at present but last night 2 of the boys went out to one of our sites near Christchurch and bombed 70 hares in four hours spotlighting. All shot while driving four very big...

Team-mates had a fun shoot last night on farm near Christchurch.

Unfortunately I had to sit this one out but boys did well. Not the huge numbers of past years but still 73 bunnies - 50/50 hares...

Delightful shoot saturday afternoon/evening in north Canterbury. Team visited a site we've been shooting for 16 years - very picturesque 5500 acres up against high country here. Used to shoot bunnies...

Enjoyable shoot night on farm near Chch. Its been doing well for us this season - since lambing we've done 9 visits for 456 hares and rabbits at average of 50+. A far cry from recent years when we'd...

Very pleasant little shoot this evening on site near Christchurch. Fog covered much of the farm presenting a very unusual sight. With almost no wind the mists lay like a blanket across some fields at...

Had a night off last night but team did well. Popped out to a site near Chch and spotlighting from truck boys shot 43 hares and rabbits.

Pretty happy with that. Tekapo/McKenzie now coming up....

Yep doesn't pay to pickup weasels - or any mustelid..

One of our team seems to like getting up close and personal with animals. Few years back while opening a gate for truck he sees a weasel run...

Hi Smiffy - We've had same team for 13-17 years intensive shooting now, and these days some sons and one grandson adding to the roster. Just one new man in all that time as nobody wants to give it...

Just looking at the bunny numbers for this new post-lambing season. Note we lamb late down here. Shot 17 in visit to north canterbury farm - hardly worth the drive. Interesting thing though - this...

:D:D great idea Rushy :)

Need to find a pick up solution as this site's farmer requires us to recover dead bunnies and drop them in rubbish hole at back of farm. Need a substantial size bin/container, and one preferably that...

Excellent shoot this evening on a farm near Chch.

Covered a big farm spotlighting from the Cruiser and boys did well with the 223s. Started at 9.45pm and by knock off at 2am we had popped 95...

Well done... :) Hope the kids get into the action soon too :) Good to take back legs and back steaks off bunnies and hares as they make good eating.

Looked out my lounge door last night here in...

Successful little shoot tonight on farm near Christchurch. Covered quite a wide area spotlighting from the Cruiser. Not easy with bunnies quite flighty - often only giving couple of seconds pause for...

Nice little shoot last night on farm near chch - albeit a short one. Popped 17 hares in under 2 hours - then Cruiser showed electrical fault and we headed home. 223s all round for boys and caliber...

Very pretty..

Nice... Times we've gone out and shot 1000+ in an evening. Other times you take the rifle for a wee wander and pop just a handful. Either way its dam good fun.. :)

Spring shooting just about...

Mmmmm .. nice pic Trout. Looks exactly like one of our shooting grounds in the McKenzie. Looks like north Kirkliston range that runs up to the top of the Haka valley.

Meant to be there this...

Mmmm...my suspicion has been rabbits have better low light vision than us and can spot us well in a full moon which makes them react and run. Here's a comment from Eyeque -an eye examination...

Very enjoyable outing in north Canterbury last night. This is a site on which we have shot over 1000 bunnies in an evening more than once, but those days are gone. Delightful farm to wander and...
