Re: Whats the best GPS

If I was looking to buy a replacement now I would go either the Garmin 62s or the Garmin etrex30. Other good models by Garmin too, like the oregon and dakota but they are touch screen and for me that isn't a selling feature. With the Garmin units you can get Garmin or Hema maps (cost dollars) or var...

Sorry Matt, I totally disagree. The courts, and the police, did the right thing. I applaud the judge for not giving in to the mothers attempts to blackmail the courts through the tabloid style media. Had she respected the law in the first place none of it would have been necessary. She was responsi...

Re: WILD DOG CONTROL AND BOWS

Hi Mick. I don't understand how anybody can see supporting bowhunting can be anything but good?

Not everyone supports hunting and not everyone support...

Re: WILD DOG CONTROL AND BOWS

It would be an obvious denial of natural justice for a court to rely on a scientific test of some sort to determine what you have shot when you as the hunter only have your best judgement based on what you see to determine if you should shoot. Are these dogs or are they dingos, if they were shot in ...

Re: WILD DOG CONTROL AND BOWS

The nub in Victoria is that genuine Dingoes (which are pretty rare there) are fully protected. So it is incumbent upon the bowhunter to be able to tell the difference. . Can you point us to the rules for Vic Dennis, in NSW it is very simple and easy to understand, a dog is not a dingo unless it is ...

The insurance provided by the GC (and by SSAA and ABA and others) is third party insurance and it doesn't cover an insured person for personal injury to themselves while hunting, it only covers damages that you might be liable for through an accident during hunting (eg, a damaged building, car or wa...

I want to look at it all in the wider picture - would that minor be insured - or insurable. I'd like to check on that.

Jindy, you acknowledge a minor might be hunting on public land. Yes, but there is no blanket restriction on a child having a knife on public land, there are many exceptions. The restriction on carriage and sale of knives is found within the Summery Offences Act 1988 There are indeed restrictions on...

Saying it twice doesn't add anything new. What law prevents through prohibition the carrying of a knife by a minor while out hunting?
