Title: Oregon Trad archer moving to New Zealand
Post by: Jim Whitmore on August 02, 2010, 10:03:00 PM
My nephew is moving to Rotorua ,New Zealand.
He will need to get a bow becasue he is shy about shipping his bows this far. He has arrows and I will try to ship them to him.He is taking broadheads and glove and such with him.He is very straight up guy and very proficient with his bow.
He is going to work at timber cruising so he may be seeing alot of country. He is a hunter and would really like to be able to maintain his lifestyle in a new environment.
Do we have any Trad gangers in New Zealand?

JeffB is from New Zealand. I believe he's on the south island.

I have a sister that lives in New Zealand on the north island.

God bless,Mudd

He might want to look at the article by E.Donnell Thomas Jr. in The Sept. 2010 issue of "Traditional Bowhunter", Bowhunting Middle Earth.
