    I'm in the Chch NZDA too, and it's taken me 3years to get a couple of properties to shoot on locally. Unfortunately numbers are low for bunnies, I'd say that I don't get many more than half a dozen a week and lower on the odd dairy farm. I'd look north of the city if you can.. some door knocking amberley and northwards. Put an advert in all the CRT stores too.

    Joining the NZDA has opened doors for me, even on to properties where numbers are low, because I've told them I'm a member and along with membership comes fire and liability insurance. That certainly helps.

    Going on trips with the club esp over winter gets you onto those south canterbury/central otago properties, and their contacts for return visits. You get out what you put in.
