Crossbows have been used in crime related shootings in the past here in Scandinavia. Perhaps that was the reason for the banning in the first place ? One or two years ago a biker was shot dead with a broadheadtipped crossbow bolt in Denmark (the ban was in place a long time before this...

Works for me too

Bambodoggy, the guy is quite busy these days, but he confirmed that you do not yet need to take a course to hunt with the bow (might be different next season ?). What you currently need is: In addition to the above you will also need the local landowners permission to hunt on his land. Your...

In the Scandinavian countries crossbows are banned, and you need a license in order to own or use one, which is quite ok IMO, as I don't think that just about anybody should be able to run around with these weapons. But then again, it is virtually impossible to get such a license (at least in...

A couple of weeks ago I saw a video taped from Danish Television (long time ago) with a story of some 6 or 8 danes who build a biiig canoe with space for everyone. It was build in two parts and assembled on site, when they paddled the length of Torneälven. Getting fishing permits will be easy...

PM coming :biggthump

Sorry Martyn, don't know anything about the Serengeti or the Mara, as it is a bit too far north for my usual haunts. Beermonster seems to know the areas quite well though :biggthump Good advise too. I'm almost envious, but if everything go as planned, I should be somewhere in the bush in the...

:o): :rolmao: Hi Zed ! Good to see you here. If you are going there is a guy in Manila that you should see for some very nice handle woods for knifemaking :naughty:

Beer bottles, coke bottles, TV tubes etc all work very nicely. Something in between flint and obsidian. I've had students start of on glass to get the basics before knocking on more valuable stone (no natural flint in Norway, we only got quartz which is not as easily worked as flint or the even...

Last time I checked you only needed a Finnish hunting license, but I know that they have spoken about a compulsory bowhunters course / examination that will have to be completed before being able to get a bowhunting license. I am just not sure if there has been made some legislation on that yet...

Yep, small game up to the size of and including roedeer. They have spoken about legalizing bowhunting on whitetail deer too, but I am not sure if they already did it this season or it will be next season.

If you have got the ring you must go to see your doctor (or give it to Frodo :o): ) ! The Lymes disease / borrelia should be taken very seriously !! I have had the :***: twice (diagnosed as East African Tick Bite Fever), the first time I spent some 8 days in hospital. The second time I was...

...or you could make your own :biggthump

You won't need any permits or permissions from anyone for going anywhere or camp anywhere with your basha ! But you can't shoot anything with your bow, as bowhunting is strictly forbidden by law. Nothing prevents you from doing a bit of roving or stump shooting though.

The bulletins are good :biggthump I've been a member of the society since -96.

Iceland should have pretty much the same rules with regard to travelling as the ones you will find in Norway, Sweden and Finland. One thing that I do know, is that if you think that Norwegian prices are steep, then just wait to you get to Iceland :shock: Never been there, but this place looks...

In South Africa we use something like that. It run on its own battery, or you can plug it into the cig thing in the car. I think that I have seen an advertisment for something similar in one of the Norwegian outdoor / hunting magazines.

There's no exact recipy. Everything is mixed more or less by eye measurement, although I find thet the more charcoal you add, the more brittle the stuff becomes. Plant fibres added "untill it is enough".

:nana: The camera got too damp / cold, so it didn't work properly. That pic was the best of the lot.

:o): This aint much, but still enough to do this :nana: :nana: :wave:
