    Hi all…

    Just thought I would jump on here and introduce myself as I have just made an account for the forum and that seems like the recommended thing to do. I first started hunting about 8 months ago and have been reading the forum ever since then trying to pick up tips, tricks and advice to help me figure out this new hobby. I am based in Christchurch and have only really hunted public land in the top two thirds of the South Island, mostly adventuring in the local areas within a couple hours drive from home. I try to get out every few weeks, mostly for day trips or single nighters as that’s all I have time for, and although I see/ get nothing most of the times I go, I have still been very much enjoying exploring the back country with a few of my mates and find myself learning something new on every trip I take.

    Looking forward to interacting with you all a bit more now and learning how to improve.

    Cheers

    It takes 43 muscle's to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger pull.
    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!
