Gidday Al,

I agree with you there Al we should not institutionalised in any way to enjoy our sport. I also had that discussion with the police, when asked why I didn't join the Big Game Club. My argument was that due to work committments I would miss most of thier meetings as I would not be in Perth very often, and when I am home I have family commitments (and I have to hunt as well).

Talking of the Perth Big Game Club, I went to one of their club meets once and found them to be a great bunch of blokes, so when and if do I get more free time I will join their club. But only to knock about with like minded people, not as a means to an end to own a rifle.
