I use the Crispi Nevada - just got back from a West Coast hunting trip. They hold up well to date. Okay not a cheap boot but for alpine work, have preformed well so far. If you do river travel - put...

I also have a Sytong - hand held. But agree the supplied instructions are very limited in explaining the features. I was stuck on the rangefinder too until I made a ph call to clarify. They need to...

Sorted - heard from Dave today.

Appreciate the feedback. Hoping the bino's are on their way to Austria instead of sitting on a shelf? And if they arrived at all with him. But yeah maybe he's in the field himself...

Well I was in contact with David Duprez, Area sales Manager, KAHLES Australia and New Zealand on the 13/2/24 re my Kahles 10x42 bino for repair via email. So had them couriered to his address in...

Talleys on my Tikka - very good fit.

What's considered a middle age stag? 5-6-7 yrs? Best way to confirm age is cut a molar down the middle, bit of hand polishing on the cut face & using a x10 magnifying glass count the rings/lines....

Wonder what happened to Swazi man's Mog rebuild? Went quiet when Covid hit. Think his plans was to take to Aussie outback?

Saw this in the news today. Similar situation of sorts but the shoe is on the opposite foot as they say? Maybe they should use HeliSika to fly them in to the landlocked land? Why the Govt's just...

Yeah what others have suggested are pot/frypan stands. As you see the burner remains the same. Rees suggestion is a bit closer to what might work but I am not aware of something that spreads the...

My trip fell through thanks to a couple of the group coming down with Covid 4-5 days out from flying in. Still managed to get a couple of Hassel's books though. Cheers.

Yes the rand adhesion issue has been around for a few years in NZ. I had the same issue on my boots (Scarpa & Katmandu NTX) over the last decade. Tried Shoogoo, ados glue etc etc - all very temp...

The topic was about game management - stags don't breed. hinds do. This is where WARO and aerial culling come into play if the population gets out of control with excessive high numbers. Aside from...

FB full of people shooting velvet stags, some under the heading of Venison Hunters. Then asking how to get the velvet cured as a 'trophy'. We are not great at game management I feel? Just came back...

Currently Mitre 10 advertise them for $79.00. Other NZ Canvas places and Sailing outlets have them from $85.00 upwards.

We just returned from the same hut one week ago - quite a few immature tahr heads strewn around the hut and boned out legs so we biffed them further away. Looked to be from a while ago. Gave the...

A simple change to legislation by Govt that allows hinds only by WARO will be a win win for many. We call that a game management approach. Could have been applied to tahr but the National Park...

I have emailed them, so hoping a reply during the week but you can't beat local knowledge. Will follow up with a call.

I see the rd behind Hanmer Springs has been closed since 26/10/23 due to trees blown down at various parts of the rd? Saw on the Council online site. Anyone actually confirm this is still the case?...

Those heli hunts are known as AATH. It was an election issue about 12-15 years ago for MP Peter Dunne but few Kiwi's (hunters) voted his way though he stood against it on behalf. NZDA stood against...

Yes agree, great shop with sharp pricing and always good selection of local branded clothing that isn't in other Outdoor shops. If you have extra time - enjoy the conversation over the counter. I was...

Polaris has done me well - it replaced my Suzuki Kingquad back in 2015. Just need to source own parts as D&E/Polaris charge silly prices. I have built up spare parts such as A arms, cv boots, oil and...

I have an air rifle in its gun bag to deliver to another fella in Nelson. Anyone heading that one in the near future?

Yes Greg, we noticed to our delight! Another great conference and some interesting discussions.

For those unaware Chaz Forsyth in the topic article of this thread has written a huge number of articles over the years supporting licensed firearm users mainly in the recreation hunting side. Chaz...
