HUNTER TRAINING #1
Hunter Training will go over the basics of a number of hunting aspects. This course will start on the 2nd of October take place every Wednesday night for 5 consecutive weeks, and there will be one Saturday scheduled to be a range day during this time. This will be followed by a hunt with a mentor within a couple of weeks of the course finishing. This does not guarantee you'll get an animal on the course but it will help teach you the skills to get out there and harvest one for yourself.
The different modules will cover:
Gear tips - October 2nd
Rifle set up - October 9th
Bushcraft - October 16th
Navigation - October 23rd
Hunting techniques - October 30th
Animal preparation - November 6th
Rifle Handing, Shooting techniques & Skill - Date TBC
As interest in our Hunter Training is very high, we will be offering it to existing members of Auckland NZDA only, with a preference based on those who have been waiting the longest but there will be opportunities in the future for more members to get through next year. The cost will be $195 per person, the hunt at the end of the course is in addition to this cost and will be discussed with your mentor. For the day at the range you should have your own rifle and ammunition. Targets for the range will be included in the course. You will need a map reading compass prior to the navigation night.
