yes thats true but for most their deer are endemic to their country ( largely some exceptions eg muntjac sika in England ) how would you like to work by USA rules and only be allowed to shoot a few each year and only in a season - not nice at all - sit and polish rifles for a lot of the year - no we have it really great - lets keep it that way

LarryB asked that we don't derail his thread.
Start another thread and get in to it there.
But I will say here that you are expressing the exact sentiments I described about kiwi attitude earlier.
You are also cherry picking information about hunting in America. It is possible to shoot quite a few animals each year if you want to put some effort in.
Start another thread if you wish to continue this topic.
Sorry for the derail @LarryB. What you are doing is great.
Talking with the likes of Tui, Pania, Dave Benfell etc who provide similar sounding opportunities for hunters, they can not keep up with demand.
