Am thinking of heading up the Rangitata this weekend for a wee wander. Have a 4wd and the river looks low. So really have the whole place to explore. Have been here a few times before and shot a few Tahr. If anyone would like to tag along will be leaving Christchurch early Morning tomorrow. Chip in for fuel or better yet flick a few dollars to the Tahr Foundation and we will call it even. Pm me.
Cheers
if your keen on going up Next weekend 6th and 7th or even 8th and 9th I'd be keen ? haven't had a chance to try my hand at Tahr yet but keen to give it a go
I may be working but would be keen on a Sunday mission if not.
flick me a PM we can sort something outQuote:

Must be mobs of hundreds and hundreds according to Eugenie!!
You boys better take plenty of ammo :thumbsup:
on that note perhaps Eugenie could help indorse larger magazine capacity for semi auto,s to help better control these herdsQuote:

Saw a few deer and a few Tahr outside of the block boundaries unfortunately. Good to see animals anyway.
So when do you get your eyebrow back from the taxidermist:thumbsup:
Sounds like you had a good weekend outing :)
