I’m at the age where my mates are getting married.

We’re doing a bucks party for a mate in March. Any tips on how to make it good?

Footgolf is so much fun 

Mate, you're replying to a bot.

Footgolf 

Yeah! I actually forgot to include Clay Shooting. It's fun & interactive for all the mates considering the number of your group. You should definitely consider this as a starter for the day. So if you can find a package with the field or venue hire, digital scoreboard, & maybe more just like this Bucks Package here, that'd be good.

It all depends on the city you are looking into. I don't know any on Newcastle though if that's where you are planning. Cheers

Thanks mate I’ll have a look. I’m looking at clay shooting have you tried that before?

Think he'd really dig a pub crawl kind of activity then could also hang out with the lads and have some exclusive fun with a Poker Tournament at a Private Function if you can find one. Really depends with how you like the day planned out! This might help if you're looking for more Bucks Party Ideas to consider.

Also agree with the others, I've tried Axe Throwing myself and it is indeed a fun & unique activity for the lads to try!

Either way, you still have a lot of time to plan out. Hoping you guys find something you'd enjoy. Cheers

axe throwing, I'm surprised in this OH&S world its open to the public lol, I can see some injuries occur easily.

Ten Pin Bowling is fun, I like paintball with the guys, you have heaps of fun ganging up on the buck lol, 9 holes of golf (mini is for kids).....

Can confirm Axe throwing is brilliant fun.
Go to an Axe throwing venue, then head out for drinks (and/or a meal if that's more to the buck's tastes).

He likes activities like bowling or mini golf so something different and unique would be a hit. He doesn’t want strippers either. 

what is the quiet guys interests ? and or ticks his box's ?

Well my first piece of advice is if you're already planning on a wedding that long away, it's going to be an expensive wedding :lol: 

Will do I want to have my own bucks party in Newcastle probably 2023 so might need some more advice from you lol 

I took my cousin's bucks to a white water rafting + wakeboarding place. Perfect if in season, depends when your party is. 

Enjoy pal, let us know what you end up doing. 

Thanks mate I think a road trip followed by an activity and then finish off with dinner and drinks us pretty solid 

I'd vibe you'd need to do something where an instructor takes over and you have a day mapped out kinda thing. Those kinda guys usually like when the system dictates what you do. 

Depending how active he and the others are? Do something like a private booking at a recreation centre where you climb ropes and flying fox etc. Or do something like find a place that you learn to throw axes, followed by pub and beers etc. And/or if you have enough land available, hire a jumping castle and have a fire and beers type deal. 

I’m a best man for a bucks party of five people for a very quiet guy any ideas?

thanks for the update hope you and your mate have a good end to the year 

You ask, i tell.

From the previous post, my friend is still in the new relationship so that's been going over 12 months,  they are a much different couple than the previous relationship,  he can go to the toilet without permission. 
He was bleeding cash, paying 2 mortgages and rent for a while because he didn't have the balls to get shit done.  He, his ex and the current partner all have this ability to have the inability to get anything done ever. Anyhow, he finally (after wasting many thousands of dollars) insisted he'd move into one of the houses they own so he and his new missus are living there,  a divorce is still in the process and he and his partner will be buying his current place outright while the ex will take on the bigger place,  he has accepted the advice that pushing for more is just pushing for more debt,  which is true. 

As for the ex, i don't know much about how but what i see is people talking her up, making her out to be this amazingly empowered woman,  when she was really just manipulative, deceitful, brutal and abusive.
Pre covid she was offered a job interstate,  she couldn't take the dog,  so she just told him the dog would stay with her parents and they don't want to see him so they won't be sharing the dog with him... wtf... it was his and her dog, if she can't care for it then it's his. Anyway,  she lost the job so... yeah. 

That's it for now. 

Done a couple of bucks in the last 2 years and both were interstate and recommend doing this.

First one was in Brisbane which was a bit of an odd city choice but did some pretty cool things like axe throwing and then went down to GC the next day for top golf with a drinks package and that was probably the highlight activity, was pretty fun taking a mini bus back to Brisbane with multiple slabs.

Second trip was Sydney which I enjoyed a fair bit more, the main event we went to was Octoberfest at Hyde Park which was a great day out.
Made the buck dress in the Octoberfest dress and everyone had sticks with the bucks head on it which was very amusing. 
The following day we did bare foot bowls and drinks at North Sydney which was decent for day drinking.
We had unreal weather so it helps when it's mid to late 20's everyday makes it that much better. 

A 'hucks'!?  Way to fuck up a perfectly fine tradition.

Isn't the engagement party the 'joint' party?

I wanna come see you in the fam so badly :(

I'm gonna be down for a wedding next July, so gonna slap some time on to that at the bare min to see you.

I’ve actually done Newcastle away and I loved it would definitely consider going there for my bucks even if city wasn’t playing. 

Would you like to know more....

If you want to watch an AL match for your bucks, do it as an away game. Do something like Jerks away, and you and your 10 or so mates just run riot in a different city. 

Mine was a couple years ago too. I basically set the only rule as 'no strippers' as well. 
But my mates organised a weekend in Melbourne around the WWE PPV that was there.

What happened with this guy’s mate?


anyways I’m at the age now where everyone is getting married and I’m probably up there. What are some bucks party ideas? I’d love to watch an a league match in a box or something similar 

Some friends of mine had a joint "Hucks" party (Hens + Bucks.. there were no strippers but I did strip) so apparently anything is fair game even in a hetero relationship

I remember having this discussion at my mini buck's night (the family one before the real one with my mates), and my mates were playing a joke on my teen cousin to convince him that they were gay. There was a funny joke, but I forget it, but something to do with "Who's the buck?" or something along those lines
