I drove that road a lot between 1998 and 2006 and never saw many goats, but the cullers were working that whole area pretty hard in the 90s. They got huge numbers in the Moeatoa reserve. There is a lot of private land through there that may be feeding the DOC land with goats too. When I was growing up in that area it was all about chasing pigs or possums, no-one cared about goats (except for that brief period when nannies were worth $100 each!).

Come to hawkes bay. Goats a plenty here. I shoot em for a living and I'm not poor ��

Big shout out to rushey for taking me for a goat shoot. Really appreciated it since that big young flella hunt went downwards haha really let the hunting bug out now the new car funds will be new gun funds, thanks rushey

@Tommy you are charged with conduct to the prejudice of good hunting guest etiquette. A disciplinary hearing will be held in the forth coming days and you will be found guilty and sentenced to make good by giving Barefoot a crate of Waikato. He doesn't like Waikato and will no doubt seek counsel from me as to how he might dispose of it.

I will try aria or taumaranui. All of the north Waikato have been culled. North auckland is booked til new years. So has pirongia. Goats are looking thin on the ground.

heaps south of te Kuiti. when you turn left to head to taumaranui. the hill on the right at 8 mile has tons on it, go to first cow shed on the left, you will know it has steps for the cows to walk down pop in there and ask them to pop some goats off. @tetawa might even know the guy.
