Glenn Harley Posted January 30, 2009 Report Share Posted January 30, 2009 Hi, My name is Glenn, I live in Brisbane, I have recently started to shooting again. I haven't been hunting for about 20yrs. Best part is my wife and children are learning to shoot now. We hope to go on our first hunt soon, if we can find a property close to Brisbane.

Qazfun Posted January 30, 2009 Report Share Posted January 30, 2009 Hi all. I'm new, green and in need of a new education! Recently, I received my license and my new CZ 452 and I went for a walk with my rifle in a state forest. WOW What a buzz!! Now I know the feeling!! Have taken 1 hare to date, but that will change with the temp getting below 40C. Keep smiling (I am!) Qazfun Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChrisTaylor Posted February 5, 2009 Report Share Posted February 5, 2009 I'm Chris and I'm no hunter--yet, anyway--but I am a cook. I really like game meat and I'm here to learn more about it and, hopefully, to source some directly from hunters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Happy Hunting, AusHunt Admin. Hello happy hunters, I am new to this site, however a member had put me onto this site some time ago. I am hoping this will be the place that will help me in the search of fox carcass's. I am currently a student at RMIT University studying Fine Art Major in sculpture. My obsession is working with various types of carcass's and making marrionettes and anything else I come up with.. So if there is any one out there, that can help me with any foxes, bats snakes if you happen to come across them on your farm?? please please help this dead animal art lover....wishing you all fabulous and thrilling hunts.....

Feralpilot Posted February 6, 2009 Report Share Posted February 6, 2009 Gday all, Saw the article in VDH 3 and thought the forum was a great idea. I have 2 30-06's 2 2's a 223 and am getting right into deer hunting and need as much help and as many ideas as possible to point me the right way. You can only get so much out of books. Look forward to talking and meeting some other hunters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SakoHunter Posted February 7, 2009 Report Share Posted February 7, 2009 Hi Guys (and Gals??), Saw this site in VDH 3 as well. Thought it is a great space to swap tall stories and find some helpful info! Sako 30-06, Leopold 1.5-5 and Woodleigh 180 grainers are my ticket to happiness! 2nd favorite thing is ironing out foxes with a .222 (bipoded sako, 4.5-14 leopold, 55gr balistic tips).
