Willis, Lindsay.

Grab your rifle / Lindsay Willis. - Auckland, N.Z. : The Halcyon Press, 2006. - 164 pages, [20] pages of plates : illustrations ; 23 cm

Lindsay Willis started hunting in the Wellington region before moving to "the heart of the North Island"--Rotorua. The pull of the bush proved to be stronger than his job as a builder so he eventually became a forestry contractor, which has allowed him to hunt every spare moment since the 1950s. Lindsay's philosophy "to get in and do it" rather than talk about it emphasises the Kiwi tradition of do-it-yourself and make it work. As busy as he is today, with a forestry contracting business, he still finds time to head for the hills with long-standing hunting mates. Married with two grown up children and still based in Rotorua, he looks forward to continuing to hunt - which he says is a lifelong form of recreation.
