Important Attendance reminder! (An extract from the SSAA (NSW) Newsletter) SSAA (NSW) is required to notify the Firearms Registry if you have not made sufficient attendances in accordance with the activities as indicated on your membership card. For example, if your membership card indicates "Activity: H" that means that your SSAA membership is supporting your genuine reason to own and use a firearm for Recreational Hunting/Vermin Control. In this example, you must attend approved shooting range or hunting activity twice between April 1st
and March 31st each year to comply with the regulation. If your attendance records are 2 or less you may receive a courtesy reminder from the SSAA (NSW) Inc. If your attendance record is incorrect, or you may have made attendances at another approved club, you should advise the Association in writing and/or provide proof i.e. with your attendance slips. This is to assist, because the Association is obliged to forward a list of non compliant members to the NSW Firearms Registry. Please take note: non-compliance could result in the loss of your license. |

FERAL & VARMINT CONTROL
SIGHTING-IN OF FIREARMS ON RURAL LAND At our request the Firearms Registry has clarified the situation with regard to the sighting-in of firearms on rural land. License holders can shoot targets on their own property, or other rural properties for the purpose of sighting-in, practising and testing their firearms, however, they cannot set up permanent target ranges on their rural land for the purpose of social activities, unless such ranges are approved by the Firearms Registry. Holders of Recreational Hunting/Vermin Control licences are also entitled to use shooting ranges for sighting-in, firearm familiarisation, testing of ammunition and target practice. Firearm owners also need to observe public safety when sighting-in/practising on rural land.
Progress in regards to the serious feral deer infestation Frank Sator MP writes: " I recognise that feral deer are a serious problem. The Department of Environment, Climate Change and Water is committed to working with other managers to undertake effective control of feral deer in the Illawarra area. The Department has a Feral Deer Control Strategy for the Illawarra, with control undertaken by licensed shooters in the Illawarra Escarpment State Conservation Area and Dharawal State Conservation Area. The department also undertakes deer controlling adjacent areas such as Royal National Park and Budderoo National Park and others. The Department and I have been approached by the Livestock Health and Pest Authority regarding the Northern Illawarra Wild Deer Management Program. In response, the Department has committed to support the program by continuing its current deer control activities, and will contribute approximately 15 nights of shooting in 2010/2011, focused on the Illawarra Escarpment State Conservation Area. The Department is also working with the Livestock and Pest Authority and the RSPCA to develop more cost effective control methods." Yours sincerely GOOD NEWS! Our club is in the process to acquire, or to have build, a club house at the range. This will enable the members and guests to have some additional facilities and a proper unrestricted place when meetings are held. More about this will come forward when all is set up and ready to go. This is a special request for members who have an email address and wish to receive the clubs news letter and updates. Please forward your email address for insertions to our members emailing addresses. Just click Support to keep informed.

It's
a must! Feral animals need to be controlled, the damage done by them is
intolerable. The "extreme Greens" don't agree. Luckily the
Games Council of NSW and SSAA are doing a great job to reduce the
threat. Voluntary conservation hunters have removed 27000 feral animals since
2006, because Hunters are first in conservation. Young hunters do their share too, even if it means to go through rugged
country on private farmland to silently stalk ferals with a hunting bow and
arrows instead of a high powered rifle. Stephen
has been successful in humanly removing a few pests, as you can see
here.
