Hi all,
I'm a hunter based in the Dunedin/Otago area of the South Island of New Zealand. I'm the proud owner of a 5 month old German Wirehaired Pointer and I enjoy training him as much as I do deerstalking. I'll take the odd pig and goat when I see them, or if a landowner needs some pest control, but my main quarry is deer and there are plenty of them here.
I swear by my .308 with an 18" barrel, and believe that the biggest impediment for 99% of riflemen isn't their lack of a $5,000 scope or the latest and greatest 6.5mm round - it's skillset and trigger time. I carry swarovski binos though, so make of that what you will.
I decided to join because our style of hunting down here is "rough and ready" and not the polished type you tend to have in the UK (correct me if I'm wrong), so I would like to learn something from "the old breed" and make some friends.
