    Thanks for the translation and for the help and information. Like I say, I'm more than happy to tag along and help with the grunt work just to see how everything works. It doesn't even have to be archery hunting. A little further down the line when the funds allow, I will be looking at my PAL and hunting with a rifle. My main aim is just to get out there and get stuck in.

    Lots of us have short memories, I suggest refreshing this thread again in the fall. Lots of good people on here, I'm sure you'll see an invite or two.

    Welcome, btw, this is a great place to hunt.
    Is Justin Competent, or just incompetent?

    British Ex-Pat in Kamloops here.

    Hardcore archer, I do hunt - bowhunt too and have involvement on both.

    We did pretty well, couldn't hunt the first year on residency rules but think you'll be OK - think if memory serves it's 6 months. But getting into your R&G club and getting involved will win you lots of friends and help.

    If all goes to plan I will miss most of archery season here, but if you want to hunt, socialise and proper cup tea with proper (Northern) English bullshit, banter and wit around these parts let me know. So long as you are not Lancastrian, Welsh, Scouse (I don't have time to lock things up) or Southern, we're all good!

    I'm usually around interior 3D shoots too, if you fancy that to meet the archery and bowhunting folks I share my weekends with.
