Is anyone interested in forming a loose 'hunters-group'. Loose meaning, not morals or attitude, but some sort of connective group whom, two-by-two or three might wish to bike to a good hunting spot.
Such spots might include Clements Mill, South Taupo, Woodhill forest (all for deer). Or Tauhoe for goats and pigs...Boy but do I need someone with a pig-dog for Tauhoe. Private farm. Big pig in there. Never managed to even sight him, but he's there.
But I'm up for suggestions.
I would prefer to shoot with those using bolt or lever. I get dead nervous about semi-autos in the bush. But you might have a semi with Browning-type safety. And definitely nobody with 12G Sabos in a semi-auto shotgun. Single-shot I can cope with, but you have to scrape the mince of the ground.
And no AK look-a-likes.
I shoot a .357 lever. !st hammer-click is ultimate safety. Real good for 200m. And where i normally shoot 100M is about the top of the field of view.
I don't shoot for sport. I shoot to eat. In my book, you kill it, you carry it out.
Question 1: If one's pillion is a) dead. B) bereft of four forelegs. c) headless, does one need to provide such with a helmet?
Question 2. Is it legal to strap a dead and gutted but skin-on, ten-point to my carry-cage/pillion? And must I supply a helmet?
Question 3. If I carry said stag as a pillion can I get 'done' or scaring the cagers? Of course I would attach Warrior flags to his horns, but would that be enough?
Joking aside. He's out there, hunters. And I know where he likes to amble. Just haven't tagged him....yet.
And so, a loose biker/shooter club seems to have possibilities.
Perhaps you'd like to register your 'interest' by emailing me direct at dpex@xtra.co.nz.
