Description
The introduction of non-toxic shot signalled the beginning of a new era in New Zealand wildfowl hunting. New Zealand Rod and Rifle magazine Shooting Editor, Gary Girvan, travelled the country to see how successful wildfowl hunters were coping with the new shot and to experience some of the great shooting to be had on New Zealand's many estuaries, swamps and rivers. The result is the first New Zealand book to examine the implications of hunting with non-toxic shot and strategies to ensure successful shooting. Gary Girvan evokes his passion for the sport through stories from around the country, and the practical advice offered is based on lessons learned from local experts and his own experiences. All aspects of wildfowl hunting are covered, from finding out where birds are; to camouflage; calling and decoying the birds; equipment; gun dogs; strategies for shooting in all situations; ballistics; different types of non-toxic shot and preparing game for the table. Duck and Waterfowl Hunting in New Zealand is the essential reference for both the novice and the expert. First published April 2007.Stock Information
