Thread: Bowhunter looking for DIY trip advise

Hey folks, looking at coming over to NZ in October bow hunting. Any advice on where to head for a public land DIY hunt, not fussed on trophy's, just looking at getting on to some deer, pigs or goats etc. Would bring backpack camping set up with me, rent a cheap car and then hopefully make use of staying in one of your DOC huts or fly camp. North or South Island? or any other pointers would be highly appreciated. Not looking for any of your secret spots but just a recommended area to head to for around 5 days. Cheers in advance
